Yeah, totally get what you're saying, but unfortunately people's behavior and perception of the product is different when something is on mobile, especially with an online matching service. Tinder was able to break down the stigma of online dating because they were on mobile only. I'm hoping We3 will be able to break that stigma for friendship matching.

I never said there was a stigma. Conversations are just more vapid on mobile. No effort is put in, while people take their time when not on mobile.

If I am looking to build a friendship, mobile is not the place I would look. Hookup? Tinder/mobile is awesome.
