We'll be back soon!

Flirtual

The VR dating app (formerly VRLFP).

Dependencies

Everything needed for the main application server is included in vendor/. You just need C and Golang (>=1.11) compilers to build. It is highly recommended to build statically for maximum performance (including any external programs you run from kwerc). musl is ideal (though may create bugs in 9base in some environments).

A simple make will compile the vendor dependencies and put them in the right place. You don't need to run make install (in fact, you can't) -- everything is self-contained in the kwerc directory.

Debian:

# apt install build-essential golang-go
$ make

Alpine:

# apk add build-base go
$ make

To run the full application, you will also need a Redis server with the RedisGraph module, an ejabberd server with some configuration, flirtual-cron, and flirtual-static (which we host in object storage but can also just be thrown into app/sites/).

Usage

./bin/cgd -c app/es/kwerc.es

Flirtual should now be reachable at http://127.0.0.1:42069.

Messaging

Sort matches by last message

Hosting is inconsistent and tends to go offline.

Describe the bug
The hosting for flirtu.al is inconsistent, constantly going offline at weird times, such as the time of me writing this.

To Reproduce
Sadly this is a inconsistency issue.

Expected behavior
Speedy GET & POST, etc responses and not even close to as much downtime.

Screenshots

Environment (please complete the following information):
First screenshot: Windows 10, Google Chrome.
Second screenshot: Google Pixel 2, Flirtu.al app.

Button to continue browsing after matching

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Users are confused or want to save time to continue looking at other profiles after matching with someone. Currently there is just a messaging button. Hitting settings and then "browse" is not intuitive and is annoying to people who have lots of potential matches.

Describe the solution you'd like
Adding a button to continue looking at other profiles (hacky: maybe just hyperlinked to "Browse" page), in the style of the Undo button, (white, black), that says "Continue", next to the "message" button.

Describe alternatives you've considered
A button with an arrow.

Additional context
After talking with some people, user behaviour on dating apps seems to be first swiping/matching through available profiles, then messaging matches afterwards. I.e. batching matching and messaging, as opposed to messaging someone right after matching.

Update matchmaking

• Daily matchmaking -> on profile update
• Update matching factors
• Update weights

Matchmaking: dom/sub/switch & kinks

Match:
Dom <-> Sub
Switch <-> Switch
Brat tamer <-> Brat

Rigger <-> Rope bunny
Sadist <-> Masochist
Exhibitionist <-> Voyeur
Hunter <-> Prey

@anthony-ft anything else?

Site copy updates

Describe the bug
Some tone updates, ROVR's fun-absurd-slightly-sarcastic tone isn't the right fit anymore, instead I think a good voice is, chill, friendly, kinda cutesy.
