Identity

You have one identity on DFOS, and it's the same you everywhere you go. Whether you're in one space or twenty, it's all the same account underneath.

Your handle can change, but the identity under it stays put. Everything you make stays attributed to you — including after you leave the space you made it in.

Your identity is public by default. Your handle, name, avatar, and bio make a profile anyone on DFOS can find — it's how people place you when you turn up somewhere new. If you'd rather stay unlisted, one setting makes your profile private. See Who can see what for the full picture.

Underneath, your identity is anchored to an open protocol — a permanent, cryptographically verifiable identifier that doesn't depend on our servers to vouch for it. See The protocol.

For the details — your profile, settings, and what you can change — see Accounts.
