Profiles and handles

A Birdfeet profile is deliberately small: a handle, a name, a short bio and your posts. No follower-count games, no engagement bait.

Answers

What are the handle rules?

Handles use 3 to 20 lowercase letters, numbers or underscores, and must be unique. Yours can change at any time.

How do I change my display name or bio?

Open your profile, choose Edit profile and save. Your name updates on your existing posts straight away.

Can I follow someone back?

Yes. Every profile has a Follow button, and People shows the newest members with the same control.

What do the numbers on a profile mean?

Posts, followers and following. They count real activity only, nothing is inflated or seeded.

Can I upload a profile photo?

Not yet. Profiles use a coloured monogram based on your name, so they still look intentional without an upload.

Was this category the right bird?
