Help and answers

Confirm your email and publish your profile, then use Message on an eligible member’s profile. A message can contain up to 2,000 characters and an attached discovery. Private conversations do not appear in the public feed or search engines. They are not end-to-end encrypted.

If the recipient does not follow you, your first message may be a request. Wait for acceptance before sending more. In message settings, choose requests, only people you follow, or no new contacts. This setting concerns new conversations.

Decline an unwanted request, report the message from the conversation, or block the member. A report sends the relevant message to authorised moderators for review; it is not posted publicly. Never send passwords or verification codes in a conversation.
