Filter out anyone who isn’t into MY gender
The gender filter is terribly broken in that it only addresses HALF the equation.
Whether you are cis or trans, gay or straight, I think one thing we should all be able to agree on is that we are SICK AND TIRED of seeing profiles of people WHO ARE NOT EVEN INTO OUR GENDER.
It’s absurd to me that in 2023 an explicitly queer app doesn’t have this basic functionality that most cishet apps do:
If someone signs up as a man DO NOT show them profiles of ANYONE who has set their filters as not looking for men. And if someone signs up as a woman DO NOT show them profiles of ANYONE who has set their filters as not looking for women.
There is zero reason to not have this as default behaviour by now. The way things are currently set up just pisses everyone off & frankly has caused a lot of gay men to blame trans people for “ruining the app” when there is such a simple fix!

EXACTLY!
But how? When most people leave profiles blank or partially filled in. Grindr has allowed this to handicap their filters.
I would so like to see the filters fixed!
