I've ( @hloth@lemmy.blahaj.zone ) been working on reverse-engineering Grindr and creating an open source client implementation for it since March.

When GrindrPlus closed, my project turned out to be its de-facto successor and immediatelly several thousands of people started following it. Now it has 70k+ downloads on Forgejo and the authorship is dedicated to public domain :)

  • MIT licensed, no ads, no analytics, no trackers, no diagnostics, no statistics, no telemetry, only opt-in updates checking
  • Signed releases, reproducible builds on all four platforms, full transparency
  • And it's now in Google Play (for the time being) and being reviewed for F-Droid!

Ah, it's what the gays deserve! As Grindr has gone to shit, the call for a better version of it is necessary...I hope to be able to contribute some day to this project in minor ways, as it sounds fetch as fuck!
