Thumpr - Gay Social

Thumpr is a privacy-first social platform for gay, bi, and queer men, built around real connection, not ads, algorithms, or selling your data.

Connected to the open social web.
Thumpr is a gay social app with full Bluesky integration and federation support. Post from Thumpr directly to Bluesky, follow friends across the open social web, and keep your identity portable instead of locked into a single platform.

Privacy built in from day one.
Messages are end-to-end encrypted the moment you hit send. Bundles, private photo collections, are encrypted on your device before they ever leave it. No ad networks. No third-party data sales.

Photos that disappear on your terms.
Send a photo or a whole album in chat and decide how long it lives: view once, one hour, or 24 hours. Recipients see a blurred preview and a clear "disappears after viewing" label before they open anything. When time is up, the photo is gone from the server, not just hidden. On mobile, you'll be told if someone screenshots an expiring photo.

React to what caught your eye.
Tap any photo on someone's profile and leave a reaction. It says more than a nudge ever could: they know exactly what you liked and have something to reply to. Your Reactions inbox shows who reacted, to which photo, with a one-tap way to message them back.

Say hi without leaving the profile.
Every profile has a message box right on it. Type, send, and the conversation starts right there.

Find people through shared interests, not engagement algorithms.
Use hashtag-based discovery to connect with people into the same things you are: nightlife, gaming, drag, fitness, leather, hiking, art, travel, and more. What you see is chronological and community driven, not manipulated for engagement.

See who's looking. Or don't be seen.
See who's viewed your profile, or turn on anonymous browsing. Your call, and you can change it any time.

Find events and plans nearby.
Discover local parties and nights out. RSVP to events to stay in the loop.

More social. Less transactional.
Browse nearby profiles on the grid or map, react to photos, share Bundles, and stay connected both inside Thumpr and across Bluesky. Whether it's someone across town or someone you met in another city, the connection doesn't have to disappear after one conversation.

Your profile, your way.
A few photos. A few words. Your interests, your vibe, your community. No compatibility scores deciding your worth. And now in dark mode, if that's your vibe too.

Built by and for the community, private by design, social by intent, and connected to the open web.
