Fantastic little app for connecting with the other queer people in your area. Different tags and filters help you connect with exactly who you're looking for, and the events and communitites sections are fantastic. You can't put pictures in a a post, and you can only have one pic on your profile, but those are good things, IMO, for this kind of app. Highly recommend for queer people who are feeling alone in their area.

I used to be on the app a lot, but then I had an unfortunate experience and took a long break. Im back now, looking for the fun experiences I remember from way back when. Many people will find a way to ruin a good thing. The trick is getting through the ones that hurt and sticking with the ones that don't. It feels like a series of newspaper ads and a lot of fun can come from answering some of them

It's basically Queer Nextdoor since they added comments, but better that than Regular Nextdoor. Nothing really important is locked behind "Lex Plus," although nothing worth $10/mo is either. I might buy it to support the app if it cost about half as much. Ads are maybe more numerous than I'd like but pretty unobtrusive, text only (+emoji) sponsored post type deal, not the kind of thing I can complain about when I ain't donating to upkeep costs.
