What's being done to thwart profile miners and scammers? The expectation is we chat with the real person. Not advocating ID verification, but if you pay real money then a billing address provides sufficient info, and if you don't have $300 for years of memories then please go away.
Good point. So far I only have email verification. There is no billing yet, everything is free currently. On long term I plan to offer convenience features and for example to possibility to create custom question sets. Those gonna be premium features and I will offer that way cheaper than the competitors. It's a good idea that this could also be the verification level and maybe I could add a matching criteria that only verified premium users match with each other.
Really like the idea and signed up, most dating apps are meat markets designed to fleece money off the basic human need for connection.
Hope it catches on!
Also, i had multiple answers to a lot of the questions, where only 1 or 2 were possible.
Thanks for that info. I am currently using brevo.com and the dashboard says that over 98% of mails were delivered. I already started to register Amazon SES, currently waiting for the DKIM verification. So seems like a good time to switch soon. I hope that helps, since smtp servers and email domain warmup is not really a topic I know much about honestly.
I've firstly searched for subreddits that are international but none of those allowed me even to just pitch the idea. Then I suddenly found German subreddits for searching friends and they had either no rules, no active mods, or the mods just allowed me to post. I searched a few city subreddits of Germany as well. And yea, I am actually from Germany so it made it even more easy then.
The matching works on 5 dimensions, such as - social energy, directness, worldviews. Each weighted on how important it is for you. The matching also tries to pair people with the same activity on the app, means someone who just turns in once a week won't be preferred in matching with someone who opens the app daily. There are also some hard and soft criteria's users can configure in their matching settings, such as age range, locations, gender, etc.
I hope that answers your questions. I have a deep dive on the matching system on my faq page if you're curious

Yea exactly. The onboarding questions are designed like that on purpose, that you can't choose every answer, because they are matching criteria.
But when you land in a 1on1 it's more relaxed. Often multiple choice and even a comment field with free text.
Your email confirmation link’s domain is in common adblock lists.

Update: Will add SSO soon
Not the email, the link in it is blocked by ad blockers. You might want to check the number of emails sent versus the number confirmed.
I figured it out. It is actually brevo rewriting all my links and adds tracking. Will change to Amazon SES very soon. Thanks again for noticing this.
Oh, okay. Which ad blocker are you using? I am using ublock origin and didn't notice that issue. I will take a look. Thanks
very cool that image is blurred until after match. what subs on reddit did you post on? how does your algo compute "likeness" between two people.
