Good morning, friends.
We have some things to show you today.
Most social platforms make decisions behind closed doors.
Last month, we did something different. We put one to a vote.
You chose. We built it.
Should authors delete comments on their posts? Or hide them? We asked our community. Two rounds. Binding. Hiding won, 54 to 40. So that's what we shipped. A hidden comment shows a placeholder, and anyone can tap to reveal it. Nothing erased. Nothing buried. And while we were at it, comments now load as you scroll. No more tapping for the next page.
The fifteen-minute edit window is gone.
We asked ourselves a simple question. Why fifteen minutes? We had no good answer. So we removed it. Edit your posts whenever you want. A small "edited" marker keeps everyone honest.
Streaks are here.
Stay active every day and build your streak. Earn freezes to protect it when life gets in the way. Take on quest week for bonus rewards. Collect badges as your streak grows. Your flame timeline shows the whole journey, including the days a freeze saved you. Proud of your streak? Share it with friends, right from the app.
And a hundred quiet things.
Mentions that always arrive. Everywhere. Turn your phone sideways and a photo becomes the entire screen. Unless your rotation lock says otherwise. We respect that too. Two-factor prompts that tell you which account they're for. Fewer dead ends when you sign in. Stronger walls against spam and scams.
One more thing.
Groups are coming to eYou.
Spaces built around what you care about. Create your own, or join the ones that feel like home. Make it public, so anyone can find the conversation. Or make it private, so it stays between members. You choose when you create it. And it stays that way. No surprises later.
Your people are already here. Soon they'll have a place.
When we started eYou, we made a promise. A social network built on credibility. On transparency. On respect for the people who use it.
Every feature you saw today came from that promise. And the next ones will too.
We can't wait to show you what's next.
