I wonder if it's because of social media creating deeper and deeper niche personality traits. Where it's simultaneously easy to find lots of people that share common likes/dislikes, but practically unobtainable to find that one human that shares all are likes/dislikes and be the that perfect friend. There's also so many things to like and dislike that maybe people don't even truly know what they like and dislike. Too many social interactions (and the culture of labelling everything, increasingly dividing us) have us burned out on making the deep connections. It's similar to this: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25667362
