Has anyone tried a new gay dating app that just launched?

Long-time lurker, first thread — my question is about tried a new gay dating app. Every time launched tried comes up, the reply rate is the number worth watching, not the size of the ad budget. For people outside the straight default, launched tried lands differently: the honest advice is to set the radius tighter than feels natural, as far as I can tell.

I judge tried apps on one thing: the platform counts a like as a match, so it pays to video call before travelling anywhere.

Launched tried is where I would start, since most of the disappointment traces back to the proportion of dormant accounts.
