Grindr servers crash due to high volume in Milwaukee

In case anyone isn't aware, Grindr is a gay hookup service, similar to Tinder, but for gay men. And for anyone not paying attention, the Republican party held their national convention this week in Milwaukee. In a development that should be surprising to no one, this was an opportunity for delegates to engage in the kinds of activities that may be problematic for them back home, to the point that Grindr's servers crashed from the additional traffic.

I don't intend this to be a dig at gay men; what annoys me is the hypocrisy. These are the same people who plan on revoking same-sex marriage and criminalizing trans people. While I can understand why a conservative might not want people to know that they're engaging in casual gay sex and hookups, it's disgusting that they're engaging in the same behavior they want to punish others for. I wouldn't be upset if some hacker publicly exposed every one of them.

It is a global IT outage. Nothing to do with RNC.
@Sojournersoul And the global outage only happened to affect Grindr in Milwaukee. Amazing.

Republican conventions are known for this sort of thing, even if you've never heard about it.
@LeopoldBloom Guess you are an expert on Grindr.
@Sojournersoul No, I'm an expert on the news. Ask your dad about Grindr.
@LeopoldBloom Listen dont be upset, i am sure you will have plenty of time to find to get on and find a date. My dad died defending your rights to use your site you like so much.
@Sojournersoul Aww, that's sweet, but I've been married to the same woman for over 30 years. Look, I'm not judgmental, if you and your dad like to get it on with each other, go for it.

So your dad was a Democrat? Because Project 2025 will outlaw Grindr, forcing you to use the underground NAMBLA site.
@LeopoldBloom make sure you clear your browsing history, you dont want your wife seeing the men you are trying to date. Sorry, but my dad only got it on with your wife, how are my siblings doing?
