No, I think it's more so now. People are more cautious, I know I definitely am - I'm still trying to minimise contact with too many people. I also think cockdown gave people a chance to think about their priorities, what's important to them and what they want from a site like this. So before I might have said yes to a few more socials, just for the hell of it. Had a couple more mediocre shags because I could.
Now I'm even less likely to meet and when I do I want adequate as a minimum. |

There are more instant/online gratification people on here now and trying to sift the wheat is tiresome, so many do not even bother instigating conversation as the risk of time being wasted is high
Party socials and clubs are more preferable than meeting Newbies for me now |

I've been chatting to quite a few people over lockdown, and I feel like some sort of friendship has formed.
Now restrictions are lifted I'm very keen to meet those people, before I have time to chat to and potentially meet new people.
Add that to an unwillingness to be in a real crowd scene and the influx of people expecting sex on demand mentioned above, and I think it must currently be incredibly difficult for anyone new to get a conversation going, let alone arrange to meet. |

I don't think it's that I'm more cautious since lockdown, just that priorities have changed perhaps.
My time is limited and I don't want to spend it meeting any old Tom, dick or harry. I am focusing on catching up with old friends more. |

Definitely more online chat types. Also the risks. |

As others said, I'm v cautious still.
I work with very vulnerable people, so Im minimising risk as much as I can, even though I'm tested regularly at work.
I happily chat to others, but have made it clear it would only be a social if I did meet at the moment. |

It feels busier. We are getting more meet now type messages which we refuse as we used to do before lockdown.
The reverse of that is a lot more people are keen to meet for a social only first meet which suits us down to the ground. |
