Yes. I'm still going to yell at IPS though.
I want these members to auto-follow the club's content. I'd rather be more aggressive with my marketing than less.
I know. I installed your plugin before I even enabled Clubs. It's the only way I didn't have a complete meltdown in clubs.

Not happy.
That summarizes my feelings on clubs. I investigated clubs three times in the past and last night I officially converted my group from Group Collaboration over to IP.Clubs, and I'm still deeply unhappy. I feel like I went from driving a top-of-the-line Mercedes to a Kia. The only thing going for the Kia is that it's company-insured to always be supported.
This is an incredibly sensitive topic to me, because the reputation and features of my community are now critiqued by a third-party Club Leader who has entrusted me to move his 12-year group over to my community.
I don't even know where to begin:
No homepage - Your dinky little text box doesn't cut it. My Club Leader understands the concept of a homepage, wants a homepage, and deserves a homepage. A homepage with full ckeditor capabilities with image attachments, bold, colors and all the other wild and outrageous formatting that he wants. He wants it more than an Activity Stream, which we can't customize anyways. Follow - no club-wide follow. These external members have no bloody clue what your features are, and asking them to follow each node is ridiculous. Getting them through a two-step process to register on my community and then join the club is already a huge ask. But once they join the club, they don't get notified on any of the content even though that's the whole reason why they joined. Once a member joins a club, they should auto-follow the club. Members No custom moderator permissions. I have no idea what moderator permissions were just given to the moderator. No member outreach. How does my club owner actually message or mail his members to market outside of his club? Nodes - no reordering, which means you're screwed on ordering. Nodes - no categories within nodes, which is a major pain point for me. I had to convince my Club Leader to reduce 70+ categories into 3. He had detailed categories for each letter of the album A-Z, and now all albums are mixed together in 39 pages of albums. Content is king, and the inability to organize and categorize within nodes is a huge pain point. Conversion - no conversion of existing nodes. I have no idea how IPS expected me to manually move 49,700 content items into clubs. Content is king, and clubs is not easy to transfer content in / out. Delete and Move/Delete - In the ACP > Community app nodes, club nodes are not an option when using Delete or Move / Delete. Node Settings - I, as root admin, don't have full node control over settings or permissions. For example, in galleries I can't enable "only use albums". I have no idea how or where these nodes are inheriting certain settings that are beyond even my control as a root admin, and that's a big problem. I am asking a Club Leader to trust me to move his content, his members, and his loyalty over to me, yet these are the real challenges that I'm facing: his members aren't notified of new content; his members can't find content in 39 pages of albums; and his moderator and members can do whatever with whatever permissions they want because I can't control user, moderator, or node permissions.

I mean, rather than start class warfare between the Facebook masses and literary poets 😋 (and by the way, i feel confident in saying the Facebook horde will win), I don't think the problem is even software or users.
When you're on mobile, you just have less space to work with. That's an unfortunate fact of reduced screen space. Letting that entire screen space be filled up with a quote when your only purpose is to refer back to a post is an inefficient use of space.

This isn't the first time I've been told the horde will win …
… but yes, I agree the mobile site (not the mobile app ) needs to remain fluid.

I wonder if you can do daily points, but make them negative. For example, for every day you're a member -2?

Invitation - Allow club leaders to send invitations to external (non-community) users. My club leader has an extremely active membership that exists on another platform, but he doesn't have a way of sending email invitations to them via my site and directly inviting them to join his new club.
Join - This is probably the #1 pain point and I don't know why I didn't bring it up before. External (non-community) users don't understand they need to register on my site and join the club. It consistently causes a lot of confusion to new users. I'm envisioning a streamlined join process that both registers on my site and joins the club in a single process.
Club Marketing - This is consistently requested by my Club Leader to be able to send out bulk mail to the members within his club, as email is the preferred way of communicating with his group.
I also want to reiterate existing pain points of clubs, especially:
Node Control - I don't have full access to all category settings, which continues to be a problem. This means I can't toggle "albums only" for gallery, which means users are spraying their pics all over the category and not organizing into albums. Default Follow - Users don't auto-follow the club when they join, which means they don't get club updates even though that's the sole reason why they joined. I had to send out a lengthy tutorial that explained how to follow the club AND how to adjust their notification settings, although I'm resigned to the fact that most of those users will never be able to figure out those settings.

Suggestion
A different type of "Mystery box" that can give random items instead of points
We can select which items can be received from opening a box We can specify how many different items the member can receive for each box -
