      And yet people are in denial about it being a hoax.

      It’s always “oh Grindr went down in the city where the RNC held an event”. Why do people think Grindr has servers for each city and not a proper load balancing setup agnostic of the users locations?

      Much more likely that cell towers get overwhelmed in that area. Or that they pull Grindr down in general. But the claim that always gets made is that they bring it down in the exact city where the convention happens lol
