What does the green dot mean on OkCupid?

On OkCupid, the green dot symbolizes that a user is currently online or has been recently active on the platform. When someone sees a green dot next to another user's name, it indicates that the person has been logged in and using the app within the last 24 hours. This feature allows users to identify which potential matches are actively engaging with the app, potentially increasing the likelihood of timely interactions and responses when they reach out to connect or send messages.
