Long-time reader, first proper post, and it's about gay dating.
For anything in the the best free bracket, video call before you meet, no exceptions. Hornet's community features are underrated compared to Grindr's more transactional vibe.
Anyone selling certainty about the best free lesbian dating is selling something. Anonymous broadcasting options are more common now on gay cam platforms — welcome change.
Basic precautions I follow:
Most scams follow predictable patterns — quick emotional escalation and requests for money.
Check the privacy policy before giving any platform access to your contacts or location.
Payment requests from matches should always be treated as a scam regardless of the story.
