I'm curious whether anyone has checked out this new site? It is called Volttage. It is a site for HIV positive men. From what I have seen in a short time, most are looking for sex, but many were looking for friends and dates. There may be a female section, but I didn't find it yet. I know several have expressed the issues with disclosing on sites like Grindr, Manhunt, etc. Not having to worry about having "the talk" would seem to alleviate so much anxiety. It can be found at Volttage.com. I looked at the Apple and Android stores and didn't find an app on either. Jack Mackenroth is the creator.
Being curious, I signed up. There were only a few folks from Louisville and Kentucky as members. I looked nationally and there were quite a few members. I am often a little late to things, so I did a search here to see if anyone has talked about it. It didn't return anything.

I had never hear of it but I clicked on your link and the founder of the site is well: HOT. It sounds promising but then again there are usually no members in my area. The premise for the site is a sound one though.

I met someone about 5 years ago but I can see your problem, there are many hook up sites with fewer members. I spent my working years in advertising and I believe if one of the hook up sites hired a celebrity endorsement, they would own the marketplace. Today, I was driving through the Redwoods with the top down and the classic radio station playing and it hit me... Voltage should be endorsed by Ted Nugent! He may be a washed out has been who hasn't worked in 40 years but look at these lyrics!
"Well I don't know where they cum from
But they sure do cum
I hope they cum in for me
And I don't know how they do it
But they sure do it good
I hope they doin it for free
Cat scratch fever" 8) Have the best day
