When I first started working at Tinder in 2016, the only way to login was with Facebook and the create account process was very simple and it relied mostly on your Facebook information. Today both Tinder and Facebook are very different products. As I've been using X FKA Twitter over the past few years, I noticed that it resembles the experience that Facebook used to have. I've also noticed people meeting and even getting married on X FKA Twitter. I created Swooner to provide an easier way for people to discover other people on X FKA Twitter and maybe even meet.
