KollabiuMRight after you sign in to KollabiuM for the first time, you'll fill in a short profile with your name, date of birth, and username, and pick at least three interests. It's two quick steps that take about a minute. They help your friends recognize you and make sure your feed shows things you care about from day one.
Step 1. Tell us about yourself
- First and last name determine how other people will see you.
- Enter your Date of birth so we can wish you a happy birthday.
- Your Username is your short address on KollabiuM, for example
kollabium.com/u/anna_k. People can use it to find and mention you. It can be 3 to 32 characters long: Latin letters, numbers, and underscores. While you type, we check whether the username is free. If you see "✓ Available", it's yours.
Click "Done".
Step 2. What you're into
Pick at least three interests. We use them to:
- build your "For you" feed while you're not following anyone yet;
- show you people who share the same interests.
Below, you'll see a "People like you" block with people who share your interests. You can follow them right away or skip; you'll come across them in your feed anyway. If no one matches your interests yet, pick different ones or just keep going.
Click "Go to feed" and you're all set.
How to change your username and interests later?
Your first and last name, username, date of birth, and other details can be changed in "Settings" → "Profile". There, your username is labeled "Username".
You can change your interests in "Settings" → "Feed": add new topics, choose which ones you want to see more or less of, and hide the ones you don't need. How many topics you can choose depends on your plan.
Keep in mind: once you change your username, old links to your profile will stop working. If you've shared your link anywhere, be sure to update it.
