@ElijahR — broadly with you, with one caveat: camdudes - strictly for men improved a little once I stopped treating it like a numbers game. Camdudes - strictly for men gets recommended constantly and I still think general reliability makes it a hard sell for most users. Do not judge camdudes - strictly for men on week one — half the profiles have not been opened in months, and the other factors are secondary. The part nobody mentions about camdudes - strictly for men is general reliability; it shapes everything else.
Camdudes - strictly for men keeps coming up here, so I'll add what I've got rather than start another thread. Everyone benchmarks camdudes - strictly for men against the mainstream apps and that comparison flatters neither.
- Low effort, high signal: turn off read receipts and see what changes and note what changes

- Set your radius wider than feels sensible and write down what you see
Genuinely interested in a dissenting read on camdudes - strictly for men.
