It seems there’s a lot of men on here but not very many women, or maybe that’s because more men message me... what gender are u?

Search for "male" on either site.

Note percentage discrepancies might be due to lack of transgender statistics. Suspect those are added to both genders.

@DeWayfarer Those websites can't really tell you about our users, as we don't provide them with any data from our users. The data in both of them is completely inaccurate.

@SW-Admin Wow! Nearly a year ago.

I knew you didn't provide them any info, yet I don't see how either doesn't have "reasonably" accurate data.

Few, unlike me, go through all the trouble to clear "everything" in their browsers like I do. And unless a majority does clear their browser info those site info stats are "reasonably" accurate.

If anything those stats are a bit under rated, because of people like me.

What I clear at least one time every season.

Much of these can tell other sites exactly what sites you have been on as well as what your doing on those. Top that off with location data from mobile phones only makes the whole situation worse.

@DeWayfarer I understand what you say, but unless you have an extension on your browser that sends data to Alexa (or similar services), those services shouldn't have access to your History/etc.

We have our own statistics. Alexa even says that our users have drastically decreased since January 2019, and that's definitely not true at all.

@SW-Admin Really? And does your stats include multiple accounts for one user? I think theirs does!

As to the history data. Other sites report that info. Not saying your site does, but there are weakness in browsers. It's one of the ways that certain site hacks are done, as well certain ways around those hacks.
