Create your account

Sign up

Click Log In → Create account and use your email and a password, or continue with Google or GitHub (when they are turned on). An account made with Google or GitHub has no password at first; you can add one later in Settings → Security.

Set up your profile

Open Dashboard → Settings → Profile:

• Profile photo: JPG, PNG or WebP, up to 2 MB. Square images look best.
• Display name and username: your public link is /u/your-username. As you type a new username we tell you right away whether it is free.
• Headline, bio, website and location appear on your profile.

Your social links (X, LinkedIn, GitHub and others) live in their own tab, Settings → Social profiles.

Username and email changes

Depending on the site's settings, a username or email can be changed any time, only once in a while (for example once a month), or not at all. The Profile tab tells you what applies to you and when your next change is possible. If you need an email changed and the field is locked, contact support.

Public or private

In Settings → Privacy & Emails you choose whether your profile is public. A private profile shows only your name and photo; everything else reads "Private". People can still follow you.
