having to enter an email address and password is a significant barrier to entry, so it's good to show people as much as possible before they need to sign up.

Users could fill in the three tag fields and see what matches they get. They wouldn't be able to message anyone, upload a photo or be findable by others unless they made an account, but they'd get to dip their metaphorical toe in the water of starfriends.

Being anonymously findable like this should perhaps be an option in settings.

I like the general idea, but I won't show profiles until someone is logged in. What I can do is show how many matches they'd have with that set of tags!

This feels like non-members are more important than members. It makes me feel not very good. I don't think I'd want to join a dating site that did this.
