Swiping right on a Co-Founder.

For those who had to actively scout for a co-founder.
I have met a few potential CTO / Co-Founders for one of my most promising projects, PH of the Day, with a functional MVP and a fairly large (and to some extent prestigious) early adopter user base.
But for a reason or for another, we didn't click.
Sometimes it's about the tech stack, some other it's about the complexity of the project or about the commitment / non-aligned visions.
I tend to scout on Reddit but, honestly, I feel it's a lottery there. I have tried IndieHackers, with much better results but, still, I haven't swiped right yet.
Maybe I'm picky, as I look for entrepreneurial flair, down to earth / no ego attitude, tech expertise and vertical background. If that's not enough, I have been looking for someone I can be friend with and have a laugh together - I'm aware this might be wrong, as we're supposed to established a business relationship before than a friendship. But I also want to enjoy the journey.
Basically, I tend to go for the "jackpot".
So, I'm wondering, how did you guys meet your sweet half?
What selection criteria did you set?
