Are we really ready for Grindr MAX?
I’m skeptical about Grindr MAX. The ‘personalized matching’ feels like Grindr is stepping into Tinder/Bumble territory, which takes away the control I’ve always valued on Grindr. I doubt the algorithm can deliver meaningful matches when so many profiles are inaccurate or misleading, and the guys I go for usually don’t match back anyway. Features like chat recaps feel more like basic conveniences being marketed as premium. Overall, the descriptions are vague, the value feels low, and the proposed pricing is way too high for what’s essentially just rebranded algorithms. I’d prefer Grindr focus on improving authenticity and user experience, not just layering on fluff features behind a paywall.
