Ratings and reviews

good concept, let me give you a secret: if a video loads for 1 second, 30% of people will not want to wait. let videos load before users scroll there. also, fix this problem (and other problems users are pointing out) as soon as possible. if you lose your first users, you'll struggle to build a loyal base.

This is the social media revolution we have all been waiting for...WANO: Very nimble, so intuitive and highly interactive app!

It is a really nice app and I believe with more users and more interesting content it will be at the top.
