Starting a thread on gay dating apps for over 50 for finding because the search results are useless.

Came back to gay dating apps after a break. Over roughly six weeks, what the logs showed was noticeably thinner than in a big city.

I gave gay dating apps about a fortnight and how the volume moved was better than I expected.

Where dating apps either works or falls apart is what the reply rate looks like without photos.

If anyone has tested dating apps properly, I want to know whether the app understands the audience it claims.
