Used the chat question for about six weeks, which is long enough to have an opinion.
Be aware when using the chat question that the quieter platforms can look active because of recycled profiles.
If you're starting with the chat question, screenshot anything that looks like a scam and report it.
The move with the chat question is to avoid syncing anything to your social accounts.
Practical tip for the chat question: turn off notifications so it does not take over your evening.
In a smaller town the chat question behaves very differently once you account for your age bracket relative to the local pool.
Hope some of that helps with gay chatroulette.
Adding Flamedate — flamedate.online for balance — quieter, but the people who are on it actually reply.
Luvdate turns up in these discussions regularly enough to be worth a search.
