I think they did. The users of Tinder don't need Tinder to tell them the friend they already have, they need it to tell them where potential matches are. So lowering the standard of degree that Linkedin uses would (I assume Tinder would argue) lower the barrier to foster communication between potential matches.
You're not going to use Tinder to date your friend. But you would use it to date your friend's friend. Smart move by them.
- thomasfoster96 11y agoSaying someone is a first-degree connection implies to me that I already know them. Changing what a first degree connection is doesn't lower the barrier - it's just confusing. Trying to redefine something I already understand doesn't make much sense to me at all. Tinder has been showing users people who they are already friends with for as long as I've had the Tinder app. Tinder isn't as useful if you already know the person, but it's still got use.
