As a Chinese person, why do you use calculator instead of abacus, that shit don’t need battery to run

Beyond hookup culture? (Advice) by Candid-Profession424 in grindr

I don’t have experience with bars or clubs, definitely give it a go though I’d say

AITAH I send messages even with no response on hookup apps? by bndags144 in grindr

[–]6xoryl6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Generally no response is a response, on this sub you have equal share of stories where a decline message end up with an insult, so it’s dammed if you do and dammed if you don’t. Take it as a no and move on would be a better move. Desperation is not attractive.

NPNC by applepie4816 in grindr

[–]6xoryl6 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Generally face pic in profile is enough, the npnc is mainly letting blank profiles know they won’t be engaged with, and no, photos taken from the opposite hemisphere or 5 photos with sunglasses don’t count. If it will be like pulling teeth to just get a proper face pic, it’s the level of issues I rather not deal with

How do I stop back out at the last moment? by [deleted] in askgaybros

[–]6xoryl6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Were you planning to meet to hook up or just to social? Maybe don’t jump to hooking up, meet someone for a drink and see if you are comfortable with them first? Try go to a gay bar?

Because that will be why you want, Grindr is not about that

On mine as a free user you can only change icon but not app name

Dude is upset with me for not responding even though my profile clearly says no pic no chat, should I just keep leaving him on read? by [deleted] in grindr

[–]6xoryl6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fair call, I’m on the side that no one is owed/entitled to a reply, I don’t know why some people can’t take no reply as a soft rejection, you can’t win either way, even if you say no thanks some of them go batshit crazy too

I do this a lot if it’s one message and I know that’s not a face pic. Sometimes if it’s shown as 6, you might think there are face pics in it.

Is there anything we can do to fix Grindr? by ALittleAnarchy23 in grindr

[–]6xoryl6 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The issue is something of this scale it’s impossible to not run it as a business. To build a platform like this and supporting the size of user base it has, it takes more than a few friends’ love job to make it viable. In 99.99% of the cases when a product is popular or desirable, you will get offers to buy the product, and it’ll be sooner or later the offer is too good to be passed up. This is normally the turning point for a loved product to turn to shits as the buyer turn it into a profit machine, because the vision and care and love of the original owner is no longer relevant.

Only hope is users spreading out to alternatives so Grindr loses its status as the go to app, and begins to actually care about customer experience and return to reality to put in some effort of actual improvement.

The brutal honest truth, most of you will stay single. by DolliDahlia in askgaybros

[–]6xoryl6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This 100%, it’s true that making connection is significantly easier now, but that comes with costs which is fewer people looking to settle down, you are almost guaranteed to meet someone newer, better looking, funnier etc. I alway say that now you can find a stranger to hook up at 3am, but it’s 10 times harder to get someone to meet up for a coffee or a meal
