yes, but inexcusable on the part of the tinder software developers, IMHO, considering the very low technical/knowledge barrier to entry to do proper TLS1.2 everywhere now.

You assume the tinder devs have the freedom to work on what they want to. As frustrating as it is, in big corporate engineering shops, you are paid to do what the execs want to be done, not what you know needs doing.
