While it’s hard to say whether the post–COVID vaccine period will convey on a surge of hedonism like the storied decade that followed the pandemic, a quick scan of the maskless, largely naked boys of Fresh York’s Jacob Riis Beach on a recent weekend suggests that, at least for the local queer crowd, the ’20s are entering a full roar, baby. And as bottoms, tops, and N95s smash the floor this Pride month, a new hookup website (that’s website, not app) has poised itself to strut past the more familiar Grindrs and Scruffs on our phones and capitalize on all the horned-up, post-quarantine energy.
Sniffies is an upstart gay hookup site(NSFW!) that’s seeking to harken back to the old days of cruising, giving users a freak-forward user interface that shreds the decency mandates of the app stores and allows users to instantly locate the nearest dick or ass floating (literally, as photo icons) around in their neighborhoods on a live updated

Sniffies is a map-based hookup app for gay and bi men. The platform caters to ‘Cruisers’, men who are walking or driving about certain areas looking for a casual connection.
Sniffies sets itself apart from other apps such as Grindr because it is specific about its value: creating hookups. Eli Martin, the platform&#;s Chief Marketing Officer, told Slate Magazine:

The platform provides users with a adj time map that is updated to show nearby Cruisers, popular meeting spots, and active groups. As part of its casual vibe, the platform has multiple options to shield privacy and anonymise interactions between users.
