"I think figuring out how technology can encourage empathy is one of the more interesting and important open research problems in the world right now." -- Sam Altman, July 10 2015 [1]

Some truly great stories get few, if any, comments. If a post requires effort or specialized knowledge to even ask good questions, then there isn't much discussion. This happens a lot when academic papers are posted since reading a paper might require a multi-hour investment, but even when there is little discussion, it's good to have heavy articles submitted. They balance out the other stuff.
If you find something great-but-overlooked in the /newest queue, then send an email to hn@ycombinator.com asking for a repost request to be sent to the original submitter. That's what I did with this article, but Dan (dang) asked me to repost it myself. Neither 'ingve' nor I care who gets the credit/karma, but a lot of people want great articles to get attention on HN.
HN is what we make it.

If we're lucky, a moderator will notice and change the title of this submission for you (i.e. turning it into a "Show HN" post).
The first thing I noticed when reading your site is this:
>"There are also multiple premium features users can access after upgrading their account (a one-time fee of $10 Canadian dollars)"
A one-time fee does not seem reasonable or viable for a business. For the long term sustainability of your startup, use an annual fee.
Also, I did not see links to either your privacy policy or your terms of use. At least some people will be concerned about copyright issues on their photos, and how/where/when your site is able to use or promote them.

On a general level, there are usually more ways to make fatal mistakes than there are ways to make things successful.
