Creating an Account

You can create a Snakk account in two ways: with an email address and password, or by signing in with an OAuth provider.

Email registration

  1. Click Sign Up in the top navigation bar
  2. Enter a display name, email address, and password
  3. Complete the verification challenge
  4. You're in — you can start posting immediately

Your display name is how other users see you. You can change it later in your profile settings.

OAuth sign-in

Snakk supports signing in with:

  • Google
  • GitHub
  • Discord

Click the provider you want, authorize the connection, and your account is created automatically. If it's your first time, you'll be prompted to choose a display name.

Profile setup

After creating your account, visit your profile settings to:

  • Write a bio
  • Upload a custom avatar (or keep the generated one)
  • Set your timezone
  • Configure notification and privacy preferences
