Following a curator brings their new public links into your delivery channels that include Following. Your Library keeps track of who you follow, your curations, and their links. Deliveries shows your delivery history separately.

​
What does following someone do?

It adds them to your Following source, and nothing more by itself. That source covers their public curations, including public curations they make later. The Daily Diff, which every account starts with, includes it. Following someone doesn’t subscribe you to their curations or add their links to your Library.

​
How do I follow someone?

Choose Follow on their profile, on the card that appears when you hover over their name, or in a curation’s toolbar as “Follow @username”. The button then reads Following; hover over it and it reads Unfollow. They see your name in their Activity.

​
What’s the difference between following and subscribing?

Following covers a curator; subscribing covers one curation.

​
What’s in my Library?

The sidebar opens three pages for your Library and one for your delivery history:
  • Curators: people you follow and the owners of curations you subscribe to, marked Following, Subscribed, or both.
  • Links: every distinct link in your curations and the ones you subscribe to.
  • Curations: all of yours and the ones you subscribe to.
  • Deliveries: every delivery your channels have made.
Filter by All, Yours, or Subscribed, or by a curator or curation. The pages refresh every 30 seconds, and their filters stay in the address, so you can return to a view.

​
Can I search my Library?

Yes, with Find, the same as in a curation. Press / or choose Find, and type. Find ignores case and accents, and every word you type must match. A Library search can be up to 500 characters, and it searches only your Library, never all of Curation Space.

​
How do I find new curators?

Choose Explore in the sidebar: “Search by topic or link”. Results come in three groups, Curations, Curators, and Links, three of each at first, with Show more. With nothing typed, it shows New curators. Search for a link’s address to see “Curations with this link” and “More from” its site. You can also type in the power menu and choose “Search Explore for…”.

​
Why can’t I find someone’s curation in Explore?

Explore shows only public curations. Unlisted and private ones never appear. If a search finds nothing, it says so and offers New curation, to start one yourself.

​
How often can I search Explore?

Up to 60 times a minute when you’re signed in, and 30 when you’re not.
