🧵 Sooooo here is a thread collecting my rants and anecdotes after I unpaused my #Hinge profile. 😱

First fun episode is nerdy: my deGoogled phone makes it weirder to use #Hinge and I was actually locked out of my profile for days because my phone number was not recognised.
I had to get in touch with their tech support lol

It’s very hard for me not to like people because I just love human beings and I am super curious about meeting all the people I see, but when I read “not political” I am like ciaoooooooooo never gonna hang out with you

I am making an effort to spend more time than I spontaneously would on profiles of people who are not white. It’s horrible to realize the internalized racism that makes me overlook BIPOC people.

@tommi ah, here's another way that this is fucked: i wanted to install hinge on my iphone but my icloud location is locked to romania. if i change it (by changing my bank card associated with the account!), i will lose all purchases / subscriptions that i bought with the old card :/ and hinge isn't available in romania.
so ummm i'm stuck with feeld! (and bumble, but it tends to be less fun&political&queer)
in short, i empathize with you :))
