In 2020, they joined Instagram where they have over 160,000 followers and, this past January, they joined TikTok. Since then, their popularity has skyrocketed. Their producer, who declined to be interviewed, has expanded the creators' audience by producing content for mainstream platforms. “It’s been over three years now and it just keeps growing.” “(The video) showed a very positive result and we started making more,” Reeves said. 'Old Gays' ended up being featured on the platform in 2018. His partner happened to be a freelance videographer and, later, would become a producer for the dating app Grindr. The videos started when another man Reeves was renting a room to told his partner about how delightful watching the men interact with each other was. “We all knew each other and we’d get together frequently for holidays, celebrations, birthdays, and we all had this kind of natural at ease interaction.

“It’s very organic what has happened,” Reeves said.
