What you can do on Colorfulia
Colorfulia is an SNS where users connect with each other and share everyday life. This page gives a broad overview of the main things you can do on the service.
Friends
Section titled “Friends”On Colorfulia, connections between users are called friends. You send a friend request to someone you want to connect with, and you become friends when they accept. Friendship requires mutual approval—it does not exist on one side only.
Friends can view and post to each other’s notes on their spaces (personal pages).
Stories
Section titled “Stories”A story is a post that shares everyday moments or thoughts. You can write longer text and attach images or video. A note is what we call the newest-first list of stories within a space. Stories work well for diary- or blog-style writing when you want to take your time.
Stories you post to a friend’s note also appear on your home news feed.
Chat lets friends exchange private messages in real time. Unlike stories that remain on a timeline, chat is a separate place for short exchanges and conversations in the moment.
Communities
Section titled “Communities”Beyond friends, communities are places to connect with people who share similar interests. After a join request is sent and accepted, you become a member and can post to and view that community’s notes. Your home news feed shows posts from friends as well as from communities you have joined.
Getting started
Section titled “Getting started”Once you have completed registration and signed in, you can start connecting on Colorfulia from the screens below.
