I use waves frequently, I have to try the app. Ecency is pioneer in the mobile apps, you get it first. But allow me some suggestions:

• Simplify the UI with only two navigations mode.

1. For you: with an algorithm based the user likes, comments and post opens.
2. Following: only the users, communities and hashtags followed by the user

• Mix in those feeds short and long form posts to allow direct interaction (comment and likes) from the feed.

• Don't be afraid to thinks as a web2 social network in matter of desing or functions

But most important than all, keep doing a great job. @ecency is the app we use to onboard new users so we love you a lot.

PD: by the way Cuba have onlu like 4 international IPs so thr connections from here are detected like VPN preventing us onboard easily new users. Please keep a daily limit to 1 or 2 accounts from here but analyse include an exception to Cuba IPs in your rules of accounts creation.
