Over the past year+, many users on the Hinge subreddit as well as a few in the Game commnuity have reported an unfortunate bug in Hinge where they only see the lowest-rated users in their Discover section. I'm doing a survey to see if we can crowdsource some information on why this might be happening. If this has happened to you, please leave a comment on the following thread in the Hinge subreddit: Investigative survey for users experiencing Hinge's bug that only displays the least-attractive users in Discover

Can you let me know the following?
If you've ever been knowingly banned or shadowbanned on either Tinder or Hinge
If you use shirtless or provocative photos on Hinge
If this persists for you despite creating a new account
If this happens shortly after creating your account, or after swiping for a while
If it gets better after swiping for a while, or after a number of days
If it's gotten better after visiting another city and coming back to your city
Hoping we can pool our knowledge to get more insight into what's going on here.

happened after a while of creating my account.
It only got better after a couple of months.
