That's true, it doesn't match location at the moment, but we may add something like that in the future if that's what people want.

Hopefully as more people sign up, our algorithm will be able to make better study buddy suggestions. Although this isn't a guarantee and is somewhat part of the experiment in launching this site. If our algorithm can't make quality suggestions, then we may have to rethink our strategy.

Studying online is intentionally meant to cover a very broad spectrum of possibilities. It could mean meeting up in person or online to study. It could mean asking and answering questions from time to time in the chat. It could also mean just staying up-to-date with what courses your buddies are taking to help each other stay motivated.

Your list of buddies will show up in notifications, but your full list of buddies will show up on your profile under the Following/Followers section.

You shouldn't feel like a dick lol. All of these concerns and suggestions have been awesome! And they are things that are great for me to be thinking about! I very much appreciate you checking out the project :)
