Thinking that the referrals console might have more impact in the long run if the onboarding process for new users is more streamlined. Because even if more people start making referrals, the new users won't stick around if they don't have a great first user experience.
Overall I'd say the biggest impact would come from making improvements around profile/banner images.
- Essential: the images should never ever just disappear after you've seen them in a preview and pressed save. (This happens to me with image posts too and it's v disconcerting)
- Really nice to have: the ability to reposition images
After that, there are some easy but tedious UI fixes could make interacting with the site more pleasant/consistent. For example:
- fixing stray cursors that become pointers for no reason
- making buttons more interactive on hover/enable
It also might be nice to have one of those instructional walkthrough slideshow type things for new users once they've finished the registration process.

(note: not all of them directly relate to the onboarding process -- but they do relate to the first page a new user lands on after they register)
