Onboarding / rules / first action

Welcome Path

A four-step community onboarding path that sets interests, room rules, profile context, notification defaults, and a first-post prompt before members enter the feed.

Choose interests

Select critique, tools, commissions, publishing, or local meetups so the first room list is relevant.

Read room rules

Each room shows what belongs, what gets moved, and how moderators explain decisions.

Create profile

Add role, links, availability, and optional pronouns before posting.

Set notifications

Start with mentions only, then opt into room digests, quiet hours, or event reminders.
