Ask HN: Would anyone in the Bay Area (not SF) be up to try a new dating app?

Hey, my friends and I started a new dating app because we all pretty strongly dislike what the market currently offers, specifically the time we spend from swipe --> first date.

We're looking to learn how folks use our dating app, and get a more objective view on what the experience is like. Would anyone be up to try it? Completely free, all we ask is that you have a brief convo before and after using.

Just moved to SF, but Toronto I was working on the same problem - we built milna.cc and the model worked pretty well. Happy to chat more :)

oh wow, that'd be great! > working does that mean you've stopped? If so, what happened?

We did everything manually so it got very time consuming. The next step is build out a scalable version which we haven't yet.

Not enough resources.
