Create a persona
Set up a new persona with a custom name and avatar to post receipts under a different identity.
Personas let you post receipts and comments under a different identity. Votes stay private and are counted once per account, whichever persona you use.
Steps
- Click your profile avatar in the top-right corner.
- Select Settings from the dropdown menu.
- Scroll to the Personas section.
- Click Create New Persona.
- Enter a display name for this persona (up to 30 characters).
- Choose an avatar:
- Upload an image: click the avatar or "Upload Image" (max 10 MB, supports JPEG, PNG, GIF, WebP)
- Generate one: pick a DiceBear style (Adventurer, Pixel Art, Bots, etc.) and click the dice button
- Click Save to finish.
Your new persona is immediately available for use.
Your default persona
Every account has a default persona that uses your Google account name and photo. This is your real identity and cannot be renamed, it can only be changed through your Google account. You can customize the avatar of your default persona.
Tips
- Choose names that fit how you want to be seen (e.g., "MovieBuff42" for casual takes, or "Dr. Smith" for academic commentary).
- Other people, including a feed owner who invited you, see only the persona name and avatar. They can't see your account, and they can't tell that two of your personas belong to the same person.
- You can rename a persona at any time from Settings. Personas can't be deleted, only renamed, so a name can't be recycled and your posting history stays intact.
