Best Answer

Tinder is, like Facebook, a social media site, but oriented toward making new connections; it is consequently used mostly as a dating service.

Straight here is used in the sense "directly, immediately, by the shortest route".

Smash has recently accrued a new slang meaning, "have sex"—it's a relatively inoffensive way to say fuck.

So you may paraphrase your sentence as:

Tinder is like Facebook but enables its users to move more directly toward sexual encounters.
