Exploring your profile page

The Profile page is a public page that allows other users to learn more about you. Users can visit your Profile page to understand who you are, what you do, and how to interact with you.

The page displays your photo, full name, username, bio, company, website, and a list of organizations you belong to. The username is a unique identifier that other users can use to mention you, invite you to projects, or interact with you on the platform.
