Firstly using the full name and not the username in the &quot;Newest Members&quot; is just not cool. This should definitely be configurable in profile (first name, first &amp; last, username). You are tying a location to the name and age, which is almost certainly uniquely identifiable.<p>That aside<p>Initial search - missing climbing &#x2F; bouldering<p>read the text below, assumed if I created an account I could add them into the system, instead found that I could not add it full stop! I have to use some weird feedback form after my account creation has finished. When I try and use this form I get to submit one (one!) skill.<p>I have a handful of hobbies, the one tied to the account is not one I want to meet people to do (but had to enter one to proceed) and the ones I want to add aren&#x27;t there yet.<p>&#x2F;rant<p>Suggestions:<p>Allow adding &quot;unofficial&quot; skills, if they are accepted they become official and match you<p>Allow removing skills (I may try something and then give up on it)<p>Do force me to add a skill in signup, don&#x27;t limit it to just one.<p>Tell me how many people are using the platform in my area, tell me how many have my interests<p>Make sharing easy. I may share based on location (lets get this popular in &lt;city&gt;), skill (in the bouldering chats I am in), or friends (this is cool). Before &quot;proper&quot; integration simply dropping that text allows copy paste of well written invites.<p>---<p>On the whole I like it, this is something I really want to use. Very good quality already, expected UX problems. I understand they may take a while to fix as they reach through to the backend as well as affecting the flow.<p>Though get the names sorted please (I don&#x27;t mind matches, just not the web please)
