baffling tinder ad rule (files.catbox.moe)

For some bizarre reason, the algorithm behind the adverts on Tinder has decided that what I need in my life is a 135 hp, 13 ton tractor.

I have absolutely no need for this, it would barely fit on my section, and I certainly don't need it for work.

This is the only advert I've seen for weeks on Tinder.

buy it for the funny

I don't have "buy a tractor for the shiggles" money, unfortunately.

[–] jopepa@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago

Besides 135 horse power corrupts absolutely

They're trying to hint that if you had a better tractor, you'd be getting more action

Looks nice, I guess. But I'm into older tractors with more experience in the field.

Do it for the tractorussy 😫

There's a song called "She thinks my tractor's sexy". Their algorithm must believe you'd be more likely to get a date after buying the tractor.

Someone already linked me to that in a different community.

I'm tractorsexual myself

That thing looks like it has multi-axis bale positioning. You better get on that before you lose your chance.

[–] doingthestuff@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

That's a lot for an underpowered tractor. For $2550 a month you could be way more successful on Tinder though.

[–] Sketchpad01@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

Why wouldn't you need a 13 ton, 135 horse power tractor??? Are you stupid???

I'm now getting adverts for children's clothing.

[–] octoperson@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 years ago

I got ads for South Asian wedding dresses. It knows my gender, nationality, ethnicity, and relationship status, and that none of those are a match for South Asian wedding dresses. They were pretty nice dresses tho ngl.

[–] eldain@feddit.nl 2 points 2 years ago

This is what 'I don't want personalised ads, don't use my data' should look like. I'd be happy to see a confused ad algorithm, it means it doesn't have a clue who I am.

[–] RizzRustbolt@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

I am erect.

[–] XTornado@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago

I didn't even know tinder had ads .. althought I guess it make sense since it's free except from some stuff.
