Imagine the scope of this whole nonsense: Grindr was profiting from individuals who would be persecuted because of their homosexuality in the country of the company that owned Grindr. Grindr was for years owned by one Chinese company. Imagine how many individuals who paid subscription they canceled and took their money. All our cases should be taken together and Grindr should be taken to Court. The account was banned and subscription canceled – of course money was not returned. I exchanged a few emails with “Rose” from the Grindr customer support, who is repeating over and over again my violation of terms of use and policies without providing any specific examples. I just got banned yesterday (10.13.21) and one and the same – bs – no reasons provided for the ban, whatsoever. I have no idea what’s going on in Grindr’s corporate boardroom, but the brand better take notice because it’s just five minutes away from becoming the Myspace of gay dating apps. Gay men are canceling subscriptions and feeling more comfortable with competitors, including Scruff, Manhunt, Prowler, and Hornet. The writing’s on the wall, and a mass exodus from the app is already happening. Not to mention that significant snafu over a year ago when the app was caught peddling users’ private information, including HIV status, to third party tech companies.Ĭombined with Grindr’s rather audaciously expensive monthly subscription pricing, this all equates to increasing unpopularity. Making matters worse, Grinder is increasingly becoming more inundated with fake accounts, catfishing schemes, and solicitations. Take, for example, the review site Testpilot, where in Australia, the app has 1 star out of 5 and a 91% Bad rating out of 100. It’s worth noting that according to user response on the app overall, it has one of the worst global consumer ratings of its genre. I reached out to Grindr for comment, and as yet, no response. I went on LinkedIn and messaged the new CEO – who is straight. They banned me and can’t provide a reason. With that information, Facebook user Rizzo was determined to find out why the app suspended him without incident and then further blocked his IP address so he could not even make a new account.

(What, bi isn't good enough for ya?) For now, catch the season two trailer on iTunes.Whereas many group members thought China still owned the app, it was sold to San Vicente Acquisition, a Los Angeles firm, in 2020, just four years after China originally acquired it. Season two of Food 4 Thot will premiere in partnership with INTO on December 10, shifting to a weekly format instead of biweekly. (Grindr's former Creative Director Landis Smithers has said, “One thing we hear a lot from the younger generation is that they don’t like the definition of a hookup app.") Food 4 Thot will now reach a larger audience while simultaneously helping Grindr (via INTO) seem friendlier. The partnership is a big deal for both parties. TL DR, I think we compromised on "Julia Roberts in the 1990s.") This disagreement explains why Tirado lives in New York City and I live in the Pacific Northwest. I originally included "treats me like Carrie Brownstein," which Tirado wanted to change to "treats me like Carrie Bradshaw." Tirado believed Bradshaw was more universal. In the piece, I have a list detailing "MY TYPE OF BOY," where I bullet point out my ideal man. (Full disclosure: Tirado edited an essay I wrote about my butt for Hello Mr.'s eighth issue.
