    the sadder aspect of this story is, the vast majority of you *still* are under the illusion grindR will actually, ever, do anything about these ads

    though, i suppose i can't fault the general public for not knowing any betterβ€”

    β€”for not being savvy, that 99.9999% of all posts made here on uservoice are not checked by anyone from grindR management (much less, moderation)

    that, unfortunately, the only way for any of us to ever get grindr's c-suites' attention, at all, IS by making direct threats, or / and slandering them

    because, otherwise?

    once you're wealthy?

    you could (not) give a shit what the people who you're exploiting complain about.

    once you're wealthy?

    functionally, you're Invulnerable.

    this specific thread approaches two years in age
    the invasive ads, themselves, have been with us for, what?

    6 years now?

    8?

    β€Žcan any of you tell me what action has grindr taken to address our complaints?
    β€Ž
    β€Ž
    just use an ad blocker

    Done.

    i have "fond" memories of that era

    i think i was still on 56K β€” if someone called our landline, *that* was the end of THAT session's foray

    =====

    it *would* be nice if we could, somehow, persuade some of the more "connected" homos to leverage their influence / power, towards the cause of de-platforming grindr β€” but, i don't know of any such people, who aren't corporate shills themselves, EB

    also: unfortunately, i am compelled to dedicate more of my time / resources towards, actually, Barely Surviving (in) this cutβ€’throat world; otherwise, I'd figure out how to code an app,
    make some attempts to buff my programme with decent Security Measures,
    and trying finding some volunteers who could help me with moderation β€” with the promise that, once my app gets off the ground, I can begin paying them

    An error occurred while saving the comment

    grindr is not the end-all \ be-all for us

    this much is true EB

    myself, i don't have much social clout β€” otherwise i'd snap my fingers and spontaneously make 500,000 people ditch the shitty app on the spot, until grindr gets its shit together (if ever)

    β€Ž
    β€Ž
    β€Ž
    this is 2024 β€” we gay cisters readily can pool our resources together, and put grindr in its place

    (i'm not so sure this "sniffies" platform i keep hearing about is the solution)

    =====

    i wonder if my experiences with gay(dot)com, way-back-when, shoulda served as adequate warning of what was to be in store for my Homo Destinyβ„’ years down the line eb. . . . .

    how does one go about tweeting at grindr?

    sorry to be a dinosaur but, i try to minimize my dealings with that platform

    An error occurred while saving the comment

    yeah...

    ...honestly?

    at the end of the day, removing the ethnicity filter truly was a meaningless, non-effectual gesture on grindR's part

    because, those who are gonna discriminate (due to their prejudice / bias), are gonna discriminate regardless

    not having the filter there to intervene merely adds one more step to that inevitable π™€π™­π™˜π™‘π™ͺπ™¨π™žπ™€π™£ π™‹π™§π™€π™˜π™šπ™¨π™¨ of theirs

    β€Ž
    β€Ž
    β€Ž

    with that said: i'm telling you guys categorically, grindR is ππŽπ“ restoring the filter

    it has been over two years now

    so..
    ..the best thing we can do at this point, is collectively stop paying grindR for what is largely shit-tier "service" anyway,
    and use a blocker to nuke all the obnoxious adverts those sons of bitches bombard us with, for every little action

    the only thing the c-suites of any πš•πšŠπš›πšπšŽ πšŒπš˜πš›πš™πš˜πš›πšŠπšπšŽ πš˜πšžπšπšπš’πš understand is their loss of income, their own (violent, gruesome) deaths, and their own pain β€” beyond these, those greedy bastards could not care less if the very world around them burned to the ground

    An error occurred while saving the comment

    the leadership of grindR has made its decision

    they're not restoring a god damnèd thing

    at this point, we need to start leaving this forsaken app in droves, and go elsewhere

    grindR is beholden, only, to advertisement revenue β€” not to the people

    An error occurred while saving the comment

    what could be the cause of this anger, i wonder?

    An error occurred while saving the comment

    aww.. ..eventide, you're so cute.
    puffing up yer little chest on here, talking like you're the grindr uservoice forum enforcer.

    i wonder..
    ..based on what qualifications, exactly, do you presume your shitty opinions are worth more than my well-thought out statements?
    .
    .
    .
    though, yeah.
    yeah, you're right, eventide.

    "we" do need a filter.
    a filter to help "us" be rid of absolute, wastes of space, wastes of breath, wastes of life trash like yourself.

    πŸ₯°

    [strike]i presume you're white, or someone non-white who fancies trying to align himself with the (problematic) Kolonizing Klan of the world, right?
    indeed.
    and here you are in 2022, arguing with a black man and a latin man about race matters.[/strike]

    and here you are in 2022: a white man arguing with a black man and a latin man about how we're supposed to handle race matters.

    classic.

    i probably shouldn't mention this here but, something else i've learned some time ago about you and your ilk, is whenever you are asked it directly, you never will openly respond with "No I am not prejudiced nor racist against anyone" or "Yes I am racist and prejudiced and proud of it β€” and these are the fuckers who I detest because of their race."

    of course, i don't expect any better from your ad hominem-ing ass eventide.

    but, ya know?
    go ahead.
    please do share with "us," what is it you know about the subject of prejudice, discrimination, bias, oppression, racism, etc. β€” which joshua and i don't?

    come.

    is this a direct question you feel up for answering directly, or are you just gonna ad-hominem yourself away from that too?

    =========

    juan?

    are you directing that critique towards steve and eventide (and ES, apparently?)..
    ..or did you direct that critique towards joshua and i?

    for the record, i'm not "forcing" the colour discriminators to find sexual attraction for anyone β€” i'm only "forcing" them to acknowledge the reasoning behind their prejudice and how, on the whole, discrimination solely because of someone's skin colour, nationality, or bloodline is pretty dumb and senseless

    there is no equating a MSM's espousing a categorical "no indians" or "no blacks" or "no arabs" (and so on) to a MSM's espousing a categorical "no women"

    i know for a fact i was BORN with almost zero natural attraction to the female gender β€” there was no one in my household grooming me to not desire women, NOR was anyone in my household grooming me to want a hard dick in my mouth

    me lusting for men and not lusting for women is what you very much-can consider a "biological imperative" over which i had no control; NOR had i had this disposition taught me by anyone.

    =========

    what *is* so "different" about me, i wonder?
    why don't i go around saying "no whites" or "no asians" or "no blacks" or "no latinos" (etc.)?

    how is it possible, i find all nationalities / bloodlines equally appealing?

    .....

    on second thought.
    nah.

    never mind all that.
    i know i'm only preaching to the choir, posing that kinda rhetorical.

    eventide / steve, and whoever else: i know you're just gonna come back with further garbage.
    further garbage, that will not address why you NEED to filter out by race.

    so please don't bother.

    be happy you and i both agree you discriminators SHOULD have your race filter restored.

    oh.
    by the way.
    do you have a problem with me calling you "discriminators"?
    but, is that not what you are?
    i can readily tell you i sexually-exclude 99.01 - 99.98% of all transsexual / transgender women β€” MtFs.
    almost all MtFs, i never shall willingly go to bed with.

    but, you observe how easy that was for me?
    i owned up to an entire group i sexually preclude. (i can even explain for you why i preclude MtFs, if you're curious.).
    there are other attributes people might have β€”some attributes of which, they have no immediate control overβ€” which would cause me to "automatically" preclude them from my attraction pool; though for the sake of "staying on topic" eventide i won't mention them here.

    @Anonymous ( April 28, 2022 14:48 )

    I appreciate your response, in which you were being reasonable and respectful with me.

    Regarding the policing of preferences (a word which, in this context, I'd almost always place within quotation marks) β€” in spite of my strong words thus far, I'll reΓ€ffirm that I am *quite* 'in favour' of an in-app ethnicity filter, for the racists / prejudiced fellows to employ.

    Let it be known: I *had* been (and am presently) working on another response for the 2 - 3 individuals who, thus far, have seen fit to ad hominem / logical-fallacy me here β€” in this response, I happen to detail, further, how I believe the restored race filter should work.
    No need to worry.. ..My proposed caveats, at their worst, affect neither the discriminator / discriminatee. If anything, the discriminators should be tickled pink.

    =========

    Addressing this to the general forum / my current set of detractors:

    Years ago, I'd arrived to the conclusion, I live in a world with many humans who just can't be reasoned with. Humans who, functionally, are "lost causes," who are better off disposed of than to be allowed to continue on, wreaking havoc and causing other innocent humans undue misery.

    β€’ If you are a *rump supporter / sympathizer
    β€’ If you believe racism / oppression is not an issue
    β€’ If you're a "pick yourself up by the bootstrap" espouser
    β€’ If you believe in "rules for thee, but not for me,"

    technically, I've already written you off.
    I know I won't be changing your mind, much in the same way you may be assured you will never change my mind.

    And supposing you did, somehow, manage that, I'd be a fool to believe you'd embrace me unconditionally: because, long before I came out swinging on this forum, you already decided you didn't "like my kind." Because of my skin.

    I'm still amazed you don't come out and say "I don't like the black race." Fucked up as that is, I wouldn't advocate for your being banned / banished off here for making that kind of declaration, of itself.
    It's when you start bringing in the extra shit that I have the problem.

    @ ES
    I refuse to believe "every single black person" (in your area) seek only trans. I feel like there probably were black men who've previously expressed interest in you but you turned them down for not being your type (which is fine, that's your right to not be attracted to everyone).
    I might've been more likely to had lent credence to your lament if you had stated instead "every single black man WHO IS MY TYPE seem to only want chicks with dicks."

    Never-the-less...
    ...I agree with you, 100%, GrindR should (if for no one else) be allowing unlimited members the capability to filter by ethnicity and by gender expression.

    If I were paying GrindR for "premium" service, I know I would want to option to unclog my grid of those individuals whom I never will be attracted toβ€”I am turned on by male / masculine features, which can include the transmen who completely commit to being menβ€”and from those who never will be attracted to me, as I am not a girly boy.

    The self-loathing, scared boys who are too afraid to face off with *real* men.

    The unfortunate guys who probably could have benefitted from some real, serious counseling / intervention β€” I know *some* people were born in the wrong bodies.. ..But *this* many males with "gender dysphoria"? (Pretty troubling, indeed..)
    Moreover, I can just look at their pictures and tell they're dealing with mental health issues, even serious mental dysfunction. These dudes made their little "switch," emulating what they think it means to be a woman, and they're still not happy. (If anything, their problems are now multiplied.)

    On the other hand.. ..Nothing about GrindR strikes me as being worth $40 a month. Basic functionalities which Scruff has, GrindR wants to charge us for.

    At any rate, I hope you are not under the impression every black man is "like that."
    We are not.

    @ Cody Padgett
    It is true you didn't come right *out* with saying 'The "N" Word' (the "N" word with the hard "-er"), but you might as well have.
    Because, with all those words in your comment down there, and you chose to only abbreviate "people" β€” in reference to us black people.

    Yep.

    You conscientiously-chose to reduce us to just "ppl" because, in your eyes, we're not even worthy of the consideration of the full word "people."

    "Ethnicity" and "Majority" and "Actually" require more effort to spell out than "people," so I don't want to hear any bullshit from you about "I was just saving time" or "I didn't mean it that way."

    You managed to cram in so many micro-aggressions against African-Americans, within the span of those fifteen words... ...You should just come out and say you don't like black PEOPLE.

    First of all, I am a black man, and I am in support of restoring the ethnicity filter.
    (So on that basis alone, automatically, your assertion of "It's only the black ppl" is factually inaccurate.)

    I am a black man, and I don't arbitrarily restrict my attraction to ANYONE based solely on their skin colour or perceived ethnicity β€” so I have no need (nor desire) for that sort of "filter" myself.

    I am a black man, and I want the ethnicity filter restored.. ..Though, on the condition, all those individuals who find my black skin problematic / repulsive, reciprocally-are filtered out of MY grid, so I don't have to see THEM.
    i don't have a need to see prejudiced, racist bigots β€” and good riddance.

    second of all, it's not the ethnicity filter "black ppl" have the beef with β€” our beef is with the racist, bigoted prejudiced assholes who see no problems with their behaviour.

    i'd love to know what you think about the indian, latin, thai, white, philipino, cantonese, arab men who willing buried their faces in my crotch β€” who all made it exceedingly clear, to me, they wanted to be bred with my black seed.
    black seed, explicitly, from MY black dick.

    you reckon something is wrong with them, because of this desire? are you thinking, "how can they want to lay with a lowly n--ger like that? don't they have any higher standards for themselves?!"?

    you can't conceive such a desire is possible?

    you can't conceive it possible, people being attracted to others 'in spite of,' 'because of,' OR 'regardless of' colour?

    An error occurred while saving the comment

    yeah, honestly?

    removing the ethnicity filter was nothing but an empty, performative platitude grindr enacted to quiet down some squeaky wheels

    nothing meaningful was accomplished by doing this

    i also would not be shocked if grindr didn't view this "politically correct" move as nothing but an opportunity for a potential money grab, one that makes it more annoying for folks to find what they want (or exclude what they believe they don't want)

    we all know the racists, the close-minded, and the bigots are going to stay racist, bigoted, close-minded, and/or prejudiced β€” nothing has changed just because their ability to directly sort according to their biases, however short-sighted, has been taken away by the platform they happen to be on

    i'm of the opinion: good riddance

    i don't want colour-excluding assholes clogging up *my* grid β€” irregarding whatever reason the asshole excludes by colour

    so, grindr?
    bring it back
    go ahead and bring that ethnicity filter back

    find yourself another battle to fight
    fight *this* battle in another way
    unless, of course, you actually don't care about the marginalized/ostracized β€” only the dollars that you would lose if that function of your app is restored (for free)...
    ...which, from what i've observed, actually is a "modus operandi" that is well within 'brand' for your company

    P.S. β€” i'm a black man who does NOT engage in making categorical ethnicity-based exclusions
    i'm also a black man who recognizes EVERYONE can be a remarkably-foul piece of shit, irrespective the colouring of their skin

    that said, i will leave off with these two points here:

    1.) colour exclusionists? ask yourself WHY you exclude all members of a given ethnicity

    2.) we've been fighting this war for centuries now, and might well continue fighting it for centuries more

    i do have one fun factoid/reminder: back during the time of sanctioned black enslavement, some white enslavers DID, very much, have no problems seeking us out for their sexual gratification
    they evidently weren't repulsed by the idea of becoming intimately-acquainted with our ebony black flesh, eh?

    actually, now that i think about about...
    ...this is also true of the colonizers from western europe β€” the "latin" ones who invaded / pillaged the indigenous of south and north america for many generations

    is it not?

    those white parasites couldn't help themselves from schtupping all those golden brown natives (natives who, originally, were-all minding their own business...not even aware of the impending White Doom) either

    those colonizers didn't turn *their* noses up at the idea of commingling with "lesser" coloured people, now did they?

    i do like that idea..

    ..i just wonder, how difficult would it be, to code that?

    (i ask about the difficulty, considering how the grindr app has shown itself moderately-incompetent regarding **simple** tasks, like ensuring our chats don't break; or, not automatically refreshing-to-the-beginning the grid we were previously on, after backing out from a profile we had been looking at)

    i am against this idea

    too easy to be abused, by those who wish to abuse others

    if you're living somewhere, where it's taboo to be not-cis/not-hetero;
    or / and, if you're sneaking behind your woman's back..
    ..well, i reckon you've got other problems to handle that should take priority

    here's a compromise, though: grindR could code in a π‘‘π‘–π‘ π‘Žπ‘π‘π‘’π‘Žπ‘Ÿπ‘–π‘›π‘” π‘šπ‘’π‘ π‘ π‘Žπ‘”π‘’π‘  / π’”π’„π’“π’†π’†π’π’”π’‰π’π’•π’•π’Šπ’π’ˆ-π’…π’Šπ’”π’‚π’ƒπ’π’†π’… feature for those who want it

    BUT, all of this would be clearly marked in your profile and in your chat window β€” that way, others can decide if they wish to pursue conversation with you

    also: do bear in mind, there is no rule which says people can only own (or / and, be in possession of) just one mobile device

    what i'm getting at is, if someone wants to whip out...
    ...a second (or third) independent camera, to manually record what's happening on the device which you and they converse?

    and THEN distribute their capture?

    they certainly can do so.

    and, it could be argued, that such a recording, by an independent device, can be taken as an even-higher caliber Incontrovertible Evidence of your indiscretion β€” one that was much less likely to had been hacked / faked

    so..
    ..if they don't get you one way, they assuredly may get you in another

    your best defense is to share nothing you're not prepared to see crop up later
    be prepared for a shit show when dealing with an empty box β€” or, worse yet, an empty profile

    though, honestly?
    anyone can lie
    we can't even trust pictures
