Follows
Follow the people whose taste you trust and see their world through their visits.
Yumo's social graph is built on one-way follows: when you follow someone, their public (and followers-only) activity shows up in your feed. They don't have to follow you back.
Following & unfollowing
From any profile, tap Follow to start following, or Following to stop. Toggling is instant — both parties' follower / following counts update immediately.
There's no approval flow. Anyone can follow anyone, subject to the followed user's per-visit privacy settings.
Follower & following lists
Each profile exposes two tabs:
- Followers — accounts that follow this user.
- Following — accounts this user follows.
Both lists are public. The lists render as scrollable cards with a follow button on each row so you can pivot into someone new from a friend's following list.
Effects on visibility
Following unlocks:
- Feed events for the followed user's activity (see Feed).
- Followers-only visits from that user — visible on their profile and in your feed.
- "People you follow" badges on place detail drawers when someone you follow has visited.
Discovering people to follow
Three surfaces help you find new accounts:
- Discover → Suggested people — personalized suggestions.
- Search (people tab) — direct lookup by username or display name.
- Profile → Followers / Following — walk the graph from accounts you already trust.
