Muslim marriage app

I've been on Muslim dating apps for a long time, and honestly, the experience has been disappointing. Many people have become extremely judgmental because they've accepted cultural opinions as if they were part of Islam.

The Qur'an and Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) clearly prohibit things such as alcohol, gambling, adultery (zina), and usury (riba). Yet many people keep adding their own lists of what they consider "haram" and judge others based on those personal views.

What confuses me is that Islam teaches us to forgive people's shortcomings, avoid judging others, and show mercy. If someone sincerely believes in Allah, cares for their family, helps others, treats neighbours with kindness, speaks respectfully, and has compassion for people, isn't that also part of Islam?

I work in music and art, and despite trying to live by these values, I'm often rejected simply because of my profession. People judge my work instead of my character, and that's deeply discouraging.
