Verification
It seems like verification has changed. I started the process in May out of curiosity and they mentioned having to send passport picture and a short selfie video, and the process could take a few days. No costs mentioned up to that point.
Now you have to pay a yearly 19€ fee upfront before you even start the process and it i said to take less than a minute. So they probably scaled back requirements and try to just make money out of it.
Now planning future trips, I have realized other that some other useful information have disappeared from search results, like reply rate and average time to reply, letting you to send requests to people who may never reply or, if you are at the last minute, will likely message back too late. It seems like a never ending list of lost features...
