It's good to see a social network come out of Canada. Privacy-conscious folks should be comforted that Trestup needs to comply with CASL[1] and PIPEDA[2] which sets a higher bar than US regulations with regards to gaining consent from users for marketing purposes and provides greater control for the user over their own data.

You guys don't rank on google. Had to hardcode the link. Your site says very little about what it actually does, connect users with similar interests is the premise of basically every social and dating website on the net. I am on mobile, the confirm email says "this message has no text" on ios. This means google wont download it to the server. Can't confirm, can't use the site. You have to make this easier.
site looks indexed to me -

I'm actually beginning a project to launch a vertical social network. Please kindly include me if your product can be leveraged by private networks. I'm looking at both hosted platforms and managed software.

By "private network", do you mean inside a corporate firewall or a public vertical network that is using white-labelled technology? If the latter, do you want a service hosted and managed by someone else (like WordPress) or licensed software that you would install on your own cloud servers?
The ideal situation would be a PaaS that achieves the advantages of a hosted solution without compromising on the customer's ability to extend the platform into either their own environment or adjacent cloud providers.
Many companies have built successful revenue models around open sourcing the core platform and then monetizing the PaaS/SaaS offering.
Either way, happy to help anyway I can - thanks for following up.

Can I chat with other users?
Can I share the pictures with other users?
Can I "friend" other users?
Yay! I'm in!

it could use some UX work (just simple things like where you position fields or how you indicate things are required)
