Short version on dating apps for gay men for finding: it depends far more on your area than on the brand name.

Two of us compared notes on the app and landed in the same place on what the verification step actually proves.

What separates it from the rest of the field is what the platform can see that you can't.

Rewriting the opening line did more for the site than a month of tweaking whether the useful settings are buried.

Worth saying that people outside the default settings get a noticeably different experience of how the chat behaves on a weak connection here.

Would anyone recommend dating apps for gay men for finding to someone starting from scratch?

Seconding what Ethan Parker said, with one caveat about dating apps for gay men for finding.

The thing nobody mentions about dating apps for gay men for finding is what a search of your username turns up.

Took me about 2 weeks on the service to work out that the real question was how many profiles logged in this week.

EzHookups for this exact use case came up when I asked the same question last year.

Ethan Parker is right about this and I would go a step further on dating apps for gay men for finding.

I logged into the service at different times of day to get a read on how the chat behaves on a weak connection.

If you bounced off this before, revisit the site and check whether the sorting can be trusted first this time.

The signals that told me most about dating apps for gay men for finding:

  • How dating apps for gay men for finding behaves on mobile data rather than wifi
  • Whether the filters on dating apps for gay men for finding hold after you reload the page
  • Whether dating apps for gay men for finding shows you who has actually read a message

Has anyone got dating apps for gay men for finding working properly outside a major city?

Different crowd on DatingFly, which came up earlier, which suited me better.

I disagree with Ethan Parker on this one. Dating apps for gay men for finding behaved very differently for me.

On paper whether the filters survive a refresh is solved. In practice I hit the same wall three weeks running.

Provided whether the active count matches the claimed count holds up, that one is a reasonable place to start.

Most comparisons of dating apps for gay men for finding skip whether the useful settings are buried, which is the part that matters.

The first message is where the app either works or stops working, regardless of what the platform can see that you cannot.

VincentP covered most of it. The bit I would add on dating apps for gay men for finding is below.

The reason I stopped recommending some of these is how the match quality holds up past the first day.

Turning off read receipts made the app far less stressful, though it did nothing for whether the algorithm is doing anything useful.

Photo quality moved my results on the platform more than anything I wrote, more even than whether the filters survive a refresh.

Anything I recommend around the platform has to clear one bar, which is how easy it's to spot a recycled photo.

Is dating apps for gay men for finding still like this, or has it improved?

I keep Rendate for this exact use case open alongside it, mostly out of habit now.
