Our review
★★★☆☆ 3.0
Tastebuds matches people by the bands they love, and after nearly 15 years it survives as a charming indie in a conglomerate industry. Music is a genuinely good compatibility signal and instant conversation fuel. The user base is small and skews UK/US urban — treat it as a delightful supplement.
Pros
- Music is a great icebreaker
- Charming indie spirit
- Concert-buddy use case
Cons
- Small pool
- Sparse outside UK/US cities
- Slow development
