Grindr won't magically crash because of an influx of users, that's not how it works.

I agree with your overall point but an online service crashing due to a huge spike in users is definitely a thing.

But there is no 'spike' in users. The only story is existing users are moving around (which is true of.. any big movement of people). So when I say 'influx', I just mean people moving from one place to another. Nobody is possibly claiming that republican party conventions somehow make tens of thousands of people sign up to Grindr, right?
