You can search for about 20,000 different terms and find profiles that contain them. (This should allow you to find people who're just as passionate about Harry Potter or pale ales or snakes as you are.)

OkCupid reports that some 80 percent of their users "either dislike or simply tolerate today’s 'swipe culture.'" This is an attempt to get you closer to what you want faster ... though it remains to be seen whether it will have the same addictive immediacy of swiping.
