As most users are probably aware, Snapzu is a really friendly and welcoming place for old and new alike. For me this is one of the main USPs of the site.

I think some of this has to do with the fact it's relatively young site (early adopters are often more passionate and engaged with a site's own core approach) as well as its current invite-only status (users are more likely to bring in like-minded individuals). As a user base increases in size, attitudes inevitably diversify, and focus is harder to maintain. Reddit immigrants will surely attest to this having happened almost every time a small subreddit has had an influx of members, or been added as a default for new users.

So, with the knowledge that there is bound to be some affect on the vibe of the site as it starts to grow (which will be unavoidable), what do you think both the admins and users can do as we progress to mitigate this as much as possible?

Preamble: I haven't seen this in any other suggestions or update blogs, so apologies if I missed something obvious.

I think it would be really great if there were links on the user section for 'Discussion List' and 'My Comments', which act in the same way as the current 'Snap List' functionality, only for discussions the user started and comments the user made, respectively. I can use them to see a list of all my started discussions or comments, initially in reverse chronological order (with sorting options).

This gets over a minor issue I've had getting back to things I did in the last couple of days. Normally I scroll down the notifications to find something recent (mainly a discussion), but this is limited to a fixed amount. With snaps, it's not an issue, so why not include it for the other types of contributions?

Edit: this could have options to filter by tribe.

As a user, I'd like to be able to create and save a list of tribes whose combined posts I can view in aggregate, so I can quickly browse snaps based on my mood.

This would basically work like the normal tribe-based view, but as if I had only joined the tribes in the list. I could have a limited number of lists that I could give a friendly name. My own lists would then appear as a dropdown or sidebar button, so I could filter the main list quickly.

Potentially, I could also turn off a list from the main view.

An example of how this could be useful:

• I use snapzu for general fun and like lots of comedy tribes. I'm looking for a job, so I decide to join tribes about jobhunting, interview techniques, dressing for success and a job tribe for my country or state.

• I don't want to see the job stuff when I'm browsing for comedy (it's a bummer when I'm looking for funny clips).

• I make a comedy list ('procrastination') and a job list ('get working'). I can quickly select one on the main page and focus on my mission.

Really just a loose suggestion, but potentially useful for some.
