Grindr experienced outages in Milwaukee during the RNC, a convention known to boost app usage.
Grindr, a popular gay dating app, experienced outages in Milwaukee during the Republican National Convention (RNC). Some sources referred to the RNC as "Grindr's Super Bowl" due to increased app usage during previous conventions, with Grindr activity 166% higher than normal in 2016. Grindr denies any direct connection to the event, but the RNC's homophobic and anti-LGBTQ stances may attract users seeking casual encounters.
