Your profile

Your profile is the first thing anyone checks before following you, replying to your posts, or considering your startup — but unlike some platforms, Snikus doesn't lock any feature behind a "complete your profile" checklist. You can create a startup or post in Threads the moment you sign up. Filling your profile in properly is about being taken seriously once people actually look, not about unlocking something.

What's worth adding

• A real profile photo — not the default avatar. It's the single biggest "real person" signal on the platform.
• A short bio — a line or two about who you are and what you're building, shown under your name everywhere.
• Social or website links — LinkedIn, GitHub, X, or a personal site.
• Interests — up to 5, picked at signup or any time after from Settings. These drive what shows up in your "For your interests" feed and which startups get recommended to you.

Where to edit it

Open your profile menu, then Settings ? Profile. Everything above lives there, along with optional extras like location and a longer about section. Changes save immediately.

Frequently asked

Can other users see my email or date of birth?

No. Only what you explicitly add to your public profile fields is ever visible to others.

Does a filled-in profile affect my Karma?

No — Karma comes from real activity (posting, launching, getting real engagement), not from profile fields. See "How rankings work" for what actually moves it.
