Unless you pay for premium, you can't even really message users. On top of that, mentioning other messengers like ig or Discord on your profile is banned, so you're forced to pay to message (while they claim it's to protect people's privacy, but it's really just a predatory way to keep you paying).

Fair enough: g33kdating is not fully free. The first message to a new person requires credits or a membership, but replies and ongoing chats are free. We also limit external contact details in profiles because scammers and mass-spammers love them. Protecting users is not a trick — it is part of the product. Cheers, Maria

Pros - Almost no fake profiles, catered to geeks, has a nice UI and being able to see the people who checked your page is great. Cons - small userbase currently and the requirement of credits/subscription for first message, even though rest of the conversation is free. Its actively blocking the growth of this app. A daily free limit of messages, paid subscription for unlimited messaging and/or more niche features (like favorite games, shows, personality tests etc.) would be more sensible.

the basic idea is good and the app handles fine. I kind of did not expect it to be a Germany focussed application though. Would be great if there'd be a language option on the profile and the search (though I'm from Germany I'd like to have better options to look for English speaking matches). This app can go places and has a lot of potential.

A lot of the website, and emails you receive, are in German, and as such most of the userbase appear from there. In terms of English-speaking users there aren't many at all, but hopefully this will increase to widen the app's popularity and use to those outside of the European mainland. The search feature could do with work as it frequently lists 0 people within a location search, even though it will also tell me that there are people in my history/bookmarked page that would fit that search as it tells you the distance on the bookmarked page. The compatibility feature may not be working right as users are either 84% or 100% compatible to me, with no other ratings ever seen. You can use both the app, and the website, to find people. To speak you do need to pay with its own in-app currency of "credits" but you can receive enough to speak to a few people by giving the app an honest rating and then emailing them, so that can be a good way to get you started and see if you wish to venture further into the app. I hope the work continues in its development as it has a very solid premise, and the foundations are present to make this a pleasant experience for people to find fellow gaming (and other geeky hobbies) partners. Is an overall good experience so far. Edited

There seems to be more geeks and nerds than normies on this site, which is great. The small user base is steadily growing, even if slowly. The biggest complaint I have, and this is a problem with almost every single dating site/app out there; Blocked profiles still show up in searches, which makes it practically impossible to find that one needle in the haystack, when you constantly have to slog through members you aren't interested in. I'd like to see better facilities to be able to eliminate profiles I'm not interested in. In the constructive criticism department I'd like to suggest creating better reporting facilities for things like duplicate accounts, which there are a number of. But other than that I'm rooting for this app and hope it gets better and gains even more members, even though ultimately I'd like to get the hell out of there as fast as possible, but not alone of course. :-)

Hello, thank you for your feedback! Please make sure to adjust your settings, so the system is only showing you the geeks you are interested in. Please also use the reporting system as much as you can, we always check back with the reporter if we need more info about a case. Thank you so much for rooting for us! All the best to you!
