  • What are location and community, and how do I change them?
    Location and community are the two settings that shape everything you see on Gaytherings. They sit at the top of the homepage, and every list below them respects both. What each one does Location is where you're looking: a city, or a whole country. Community is the crowd: all LGBTQIA+ events, or something more specific like lesbian, gay, trans and nonbinary, queer+, or mixed crowd. Together they read as one line at the top of the page, something like "All LGBTQIA+ · United States." HFew readers

  • What do the community labels mean?
    Community is one of the two settings at the top of the Gaytherings homepage, alongside location. It filters every list on the page down to events centered on a particular part of the community. These are event groupings, not identities Before the list: these labels describe events, not people. They're not a set of boxes we think anyone should fit into, and they're not a sexuality or gender selector. They're a way of grouping events so a lesbian party and a trans social don't get lost in theFew readers
  • Can I move my events to Gaytherings from another platform?
