If I knew how/where to meet single people in my age group now that I'm not attending a university (let alone someone who wouldn't mind a LGBTQ person), I wouldn't bother with online dating. The state (and nearby states) have some of the highest marriage rates in the country meaning there aren't many people left...and those are probably people out of my age group, already dating someone (but not married), or have no interest in dating or finding a partner. The one upside to online dating is at least I know I'm not the only single queer person here.
I haven't really had outright negative stuff on apps when I look within the LGBTQ community only, except for questions about why I consider myself a guy.
