Improving Reciprocity in Grindr Photo Exchanges
This proposal suggests a feature for Grindr to improve fairness and trust in private photo and album sharing. Currently, users may share private content only to find that the other person does not reciprocate, leading to frustration and imbalanced interactions. The proposed solution is a conditional unlocking mechanism, where a private photo or album remains locked until the receiving user also shares their own content. This encourages mutual respect, promotes reciprocal engagement, reduces negative experiences, and can be offered as an optional setting to respect user preferences. Overall, the feature aims to create a safer, more balanced, and satisfying user experience on the platform.
