Hi Wade! Thanks for your post 🙂 (This isn’t a direct message, but I appreciate it nonetheless!)

To send a direct message, you can follow these instructions:

- Click your avatar in the top right corner.
- In the drop down menu, you’ll see a little envelope in the top right corner. Click it twice.
- You’ll get to a messaging space. On the left, you’ll see an orange “New Message” button. Click that.
- A messaging box will pop up. In the add user field type the username of whichever user you’re trying to reach (eg: @apurva if you want to message me). Type message. Click the “Message” button.

You’ll also see the option to send a user a direct message when you click on their username. A profile summary will appear, along with a button titled ‘Message.’ You can click on this button to compose and send a message to the user.

I’ve sent you a direct message myself, so you can see what that looks like. 🙂
