Profile looks good to me man, personally I would put either the shirtless pic or the one of you walking as the main pic if you aren't already, but otherwise I can't offer much critique.
Nevertheless I would still regularly be taking new pics and trying them out to see if they work better.
Seconded. Great profile. The black and white one is weak in my opinion... I'd put the one of you walking as the main pic but cropped in a bit so you're clearer.

if its your experience recently it has been 'flaking season' the past couple months and everyones results usually pick up late Jan onwards
If you're talking last year or sure then not sure, profile seems good. Might be a touch boyfriend-y but not excessively so
Also agree with this - could be edgier, and the season has something to do with it for sure.
Like someone else said above, comparing Tinder to Insta or real life isn't helpful. Compare it to itself... are you getting some dates? Some lays?
The ideal Tinder life in my opinion is where you can do it without thinking much (just swipe a bunch and message on a simple script.) Most girls will fall off along the way but some will meet up. If you don't invest mental energy until you meet up with a girl a few times then it's just free dates. The issue only comes when you let yourself care about girls you've never seen in person, then dating apps can be frustrating.
Sometimes it gets to me though, and in those cases I take a break for a week and then come back to it reminding myself not to care about anyone I haven't fucked a few times at least. It sounds cold and harsh but it's the way things are on dating apps, and if you invest your energy wisely you'll get dividends.
