REUTERS - May 29 - Rela, Chinese lesbian dating app, has been shut down, along with its website and main social media account. The app, that was set up in 2012, has ~5M registered users. The service was temporarily suspended due to an "important adjustment in service," Rela told users on its WeChat app account. It was not immediately clear why Rela has been shut down. It is not illegal to be gay in China, although the country regarded homosexuality as a mental disorder until 2001. In April, another gay Chinese dating app, Zank, was also shut down after operating for about four years.
