For non-monogamy and open-minded exploration, Feeld is our top pick, 7.8/10. It’s smaller than Tinder, and the app can be glitchy, but no mainstream-ish app comes close on intent, inclusivity or how at-home it makes ENM, poly and kink-curious daters feel. Join free, link your partner if you’ve got one, see how busy your city is, and only think about Majestic once you know the crowd is there.
- +The most on-intent app for ENM, poly, open relationships and kink, people here actually want what you want
- +Genuinely judgement-free and inclusive, with 20+ gender/sexuality options and strong LGBTQ+ representation
- +Matching and messaging are free, and partner linking makes it the best app for couples and finding a third

MenNation is a relic that still works: a high-traffic, unashamedly adult gay-male hookup community with real reach, particularly in the US. But it's the AdultFriendFinder playbook in full, dated, cluttered, paywalled and pushy, and the FriendFinder Networks breach history means you're responsible for your own privacy. If you want explicit casual connections, don't mind an old-school adult site, use a throwaway identity and buy the shortest term that proves your area is active, it can deliver. Go in for the volume, not the polish, and keep your guard up.
- +Large, long-established gay-male hookup community with genuine reach, especially in the US
- +Free to join, build a profile and browse, so you can check local activity before paying
- +Explicit and content-rich, cams, chat rooms and galleries the mainstream apps avoid
