There are scenes where participants shave their faces in the bathroom. But there is no cutting in at least the first season.

there are a lot of alerts that can sometimes make you jump a little if you aren’t fully listening to the narrator (she gives little hints that an alert is going to come up.)

few moments in the introductions that could be seen as that, there is also a clip later in the series that is pretty sudden where the lit up circle on the apartment building flashes different bright colors for about 5 or 10 seconds

Not with malice.

Many contestants are what the show calls catfishes; they're pretending to be someone they're not. Some pretend to be a different gender than they are, so these catfishes are misgendered by other contestants.

For example, a man uses photos of his girlfriend (with her permission) and actively pretends to be a cis woman.

Contestants speculate about who they think is a catfish, and some have made comments like "she might not even be a woman, she could be a man."
