Give your thoughts a place to stay.
Share an idea, an update or a question as a text post. Your Moments appear on your public profile and can reach people beyond your friends. They stay until you delete them or they are removed under the rules.
Follow the people you want to hear from.
Your public profile gives people a place to read your posts and follow you. Follow someone to keep up with what they share. Following is separate from becoming friends or starting a private chat.

What happens when you share a link?
Shared links help people open the post in the Android app. The web page offers a way into the app; it does not show the post content.
Set the terms of the conversation.
Choose who can reply to each post. Mute people or mark a post Not interested to shape what you see. Report a post when something needs attention.
Posts are checked before they spread in feeds. Your reply choices do not change who can see or share a public post.
Who can reply?
The choices are Everyone, People you follow, Only people you mention, Nobody.
With Nobody selected, other readers cannot reply. You can still reply to your own post.
Choose the right place to share.
Moments are public posts that stay. Stories are photos and videos for friends or close friends, and disappear after 24 hours.
Docks give groups and communities a shared space with channels, roles and a Workspace. Use Moments to share publicly, Stories for your day and Docks for an ongoing group conversation.
