Tinder to remove social handles from public bios as part of new Community Guidelines

One of the key changes to the guidelines is the ban on social media handles in public bios. This means that users will no longer be able to promote their social media accounts on their Tinder profiles, or use the app as a way to gain followers or sell products. Instead, Tinder is encouraging users to focus on making "personal connections, not biz ones".

Tinder has also advised against impersonations, saying, “Tinder members are looking to meet real people for genuine connections; members should never create fake personas or pretend to be someone else, even if it’s just for fun.”
