SLOW, dated (not retro) design, aggressively green. Typing lacks basic features. Notifications never go away. Filters randomly reset. Absolutely infested with inactive profiles, scammers, bots, & abusers. So functionally the same as other free versions of dating and hookup apps with a quirkier aesthetic. That said, there is a large userbase of actual queer folks, so you might meet someone if you can catch them while they're new & active. I met my partner on Lex.

Really appreciate your thoughtful review 💚 We're actively working to improve performance, design, filters, and bot protection. We have some performance enhancements and new msging features coming in the next few weeks! Despite it all, we’re so glad Lex helped you find your partner. That means everything. 🌈

The concept is great but the app itself is full of bugs - doesn't often do notifications so sometimes totally miss messages, sometimes clicking a notification will just take me to the last thing in the app I had looked at (app needs to be shut down completely before opening a fresh notification which is a hassle) and when I try to click on someone's profile or previous ads it takes me away from the page I was in and refreshes the home page. Also, the search function just doesn't work. At all.

originally loved this app, but after the new update i think the developers need to get a grip. not only is the revamped look and interface a far cry from its inspiration (the beloved lesbian magazine Personal Ads inspired format of the past is now some sort of pseudo-twitter/pseudo-yak), the app just continues to be an utter letdown functionally. i can't even attempt to send a message to someone anymore without the app freezing and crashing. we didn't need a new look, we needed an app that works
