So Peekaboomakenewfriends is fine and all, at least before the devs add a price tag onto it.
There’s a lot of missing features… some major and quality of life changes. First off, there’s nowhere to add a bio. I know nobody really cares for the bio, but for the few that do, it adds some character to someone’s profile. Secondly, there’s no feature to look for people nearby. There are examples of people having long distance relationships/friendships, but I feel if people want to make new friends, eventually they’d wanna see each other. Next, I’d like to add that there’s no photo verification at all. This feature is mandatory as it can lead to a bunch of catfish accounts and people can easily be tricked into it. There’s also no filter feature, specifically for talking to people my age. I’m 22 and I’m seeing a lot of accounts from people who are minors and while the whole point of Peekaboomakenewfriends is to make friends, the fact that adults can talk to minors in the first place, is weird. This can also be very dangerous, as it makes minors on Peekaboomakenewfriends susceptible to being groomed or worse, abused. There’s also no way of viewing a profile when someone messages you, so it makes it hard to tell how old someone is, unless you ask them. There’s also no algorithm to suggest people. For example, if I’m swiping past profiles that are minors, an algorithm would deduce that I prefer not to talk to minors, but such feature doesn’t exist here.
These are a lot of features that are missing, especially the photo verification and filtering an age preference, which again, is very dangerous for the minors on Peekaboomakenewfriends. If it’s not fixed soon, there could be a potential rise in catfish and grooming profiles.
