@pride: Today, a single app is synonymous with casual dating and hookups in LGBTQ+ spaces. We’re talking about Grindr. Whether you love it or hate it, Grindr has fundamentally changed the way that the queer community interacts with each other. The app was launched in the spring of 2009 by Joel Simkhai and quickly became the focus of taglines and punchlines on late-night shows and legacy news outlets. Today, Joel joins us to discuss what makes his new app @MOTTO — different from Grindr and what he has learned from the uglier sides of his claim to fame.
