None of my friends use it :|

only people who installed it before January.


ah..good. Looks like not many people in that list know about that setting :-)


Looks like you can also peek at "apps that <friend name> uses". I wonder what other privacy issues linger here...


Even better:

People who use Bang With Friends (OFFICIAL) and are married: https://www.facebook.com/search/married/users/17820517232091...


na, all of them just wanted to "know what the fuzz is all about, honey"


No use my friends, all are guys no girls!

Bang With Friends should have targeted Pintrest users 1st.


I only had 1 result for people who use Bang with Friends, but pages and pages of friends who use Tinder:

And you can even search by category, so here's all the dating apps your friends use:

A friend (who I totally busted with this) points out that while he does have it installed, he hasn't actually used it. Which seems like a fair distinction to make.


I'm guessing that a lot of people just installed it out of curiosity.


I don't have graph search yet :(


Pretty interesting: Mostly dudes using this app. Comparing the same search to Match.com's app, the field gets more mixed between girls and boys.


Is it really that surprising that an app called "Bang with Friends" would have a primarily male audience?


>Facebook Login

Nope.


Why even look or comment on something that clearly uses a _Facebook Feature_ if you don't have a Facebook account? Honestly...


Because the title implies an article about Facebook, not a direct link to Facebook which you can only use if you have a Facebook account and login to it.


I think the commenter was saying something along the lines of "Using Facebook Login for a service which is about discretion is a bad idea"


I'm not sure why you are coming to the defence of this clearly empty and fatuous comment but doing so just encourages this sort of empty contribution to HN.


Indeed there is a certain amount of irony in placing an article about a bug in a casual sex hookup facebook app --that permits others to see you're a user when the whole selling point of the app is that they can't-- behind a facebook garden wall that one must log in to see. Truth in advertising and brand trust and all that jazz.

Though really, I just don't like logging into walled gardens if I can avoid it. Others linked directly to articles.

But I will definitely try harder next time to ensure that my comments are appropriately lengthy and sufficiently witty, because I would hate to leave a comment that wasn't living up to HNs contribution standards.


Ouch.
