How it spread

Trace the origin

Tinder released a weekly apocalypse story inside its app. Players discussed choices on Twitter and campuses. Tinder claimed more matches and messages, then reran the story internationally before ordering a whodunit sequel.

Proxy date; not a directly measured attention peak. Some dates are known only to the week, month or year.
