Key Weakness

Poor visibility and aggressive monetization through roses/standouts system

"Rose system - To like someone requires a few steps. And they make the like button small. Why? Seems they're trying to get you to purchases roses to send instead of likes"

Do not deal with this dating site. They are lame and should be completely removed as an option from Apple dating options

Why isn't there a filter, for instance, that enables gay folks to be seen only by gay folks? Identity is complicated and non-linear, yes, but...
