When logged in, you will see a dashboard page with two possible views: global dashboard and following.
The main purpose of the dashboard is to:
- See trending items from all users.
- See most recent activities of users.
- See news, active items, new lists, and the new content from the community (photos and comments).
- For following view, you will see activities of the users you are following.
If you'd like to opt-out to be presented in the global dashboard, go to the Settings and turn on the "Hide my activity from Global feed" option.
Dashboard is available after the login.

7. π Support the Project
Servers, databases, high-resolution images, and countless hours of work add up β even a β¬3 coffee-tip helps keep Bucketly growing
Hey, I'm glad you are reading this section :) I'm personally very determined and dedicated to make Bucketly a success. My goal is to help people to achieve their dreams and make them happy. The project itself is hugely time-, energy-, and money-consuming.
The project is a new territory for me, but it's also challenging and rewarding. Whenever I see new users coming to the page or users making even tiny actions, it's a huge motivation to keep going.
If you want to support me and help me achieve my goal, please consider donating, even with a coffee-tip. I'm working on many other exciting features, so the Bucketly grows more and more, and I'm super happy to see that people are using it.
If you don't wish to support the project, please consider sharing the website with your friends. It's a great way to help the project grow and it gives me a wind in my sails!
