PONGE: LGBTQ+ Meetups

Do something you enjoy together, and you have a reason to meet again. PONGE is a social app where LGBTQ+ adults meet through shared interests and local meetups. [Meetups] • Climbing on a Thursday evening, a weekend hike, board games after work. Find a meetup around something you enjoy. • Notices, schedule, and members are visible before you join, so you can read about a meetup and then apply. • Approved members write posts with photos on the board and keep talking in the group chat. [Gatherings and places] • Mark your attendance for a spontaneous plan tonight or a regular gathering. • A gathering's exact place is shown only to approved members. • A gathering can be linked to a registered service or event instead of a typed address, so everyone opens the same place. [Events and services] • Events help you find parties and screenings. • Services introduce shops and spaces where you can spend time together. [Shouts and messages] • A short Shout can start a conversation before you choose a meetup. • Read messages on Home, leave a reaction or a comment, and continue in one-on-one messages. • Translation helps when you speak different languages, and you can read and post Shouts without location permission. [Profile and regions] • Build your profile with a nickname, tags, and a bio. • Browse meetups in Korea, Japan, Taiwan, and Thailand. • Choose a country and region when you want to look somewhere specific, including a place you are visiting. [Safety and privacy] • Exact user locations are not shown to other users, and where distance appears it is approximate. • Profiles and content have reporting options, and you can block unwanted contact. Shared activities make room for conversations that continue beyond a first meeting.
