Anecdotally, I usually hear about Bumble-friend-mode being used for gay dating. Perhaps the label might not always be accurate to the social purposes it is put.
- codyb 5y agoThat’s funny, I can’t say I’ve tried finding friends that way. Seems like you can just say you’re interested in the same sex? I guess some people are curious, or more insidiously, in a situation where closeted is how they feel best.
- gattilorenz 5y agono, there's a separate "friend mode" which in theory is only used for finding friend. I'm not 100% sure (never used the friend mode), but I guess you can specify sex also in that mode (of course that can be specified for the dating part of the app).
