Feedback and feature requests

Suggest an improvement in a way that can actually be acted on.

Where to send it

Write a request that can be acted on

The difference between a request that gets built and one that does not is usually clarity about the problem, not enthusiasm about the solution.

  1. Describe what you do today. The actual workflow, step by step.
  2. Say what blocks you. What are you unable to accomplish, or what takes far longer than it should.
  3. Propose the smallest change that would fix it. A narrow, specific change is far more likely to happen than a broad rework.
  4. Say who else it affects. "Anyone using the Portfolio layout" carries more weight than a preference specific to you.
  5. Include a screenshot or example where it helps.

A weaker request

Please add more customization options.

A stronger one

On the Links page, social icon size applies to every icon at once. I use one link as a primary call to action and want that one icon larger than the rest. A per-link size override, or even just a "featured" flag that renders one icon bigger, would solve it.

The second one can be evaluated and built. The first cannot.

What to expect

  • There is no public roadmap and no committed response time.
  • A request can be read, understood, and still not scheduled. Sometimes it conflicts with something else, sometimes the cost outweighs the benefit.
  • Requests that come up repeatedly from different people carry more weight than the same person asking repeatedly.

Giving useful feedback on something that exists

Say what you expected and what happened instead. "The save bar is confusing" is hard to act on; "I changed my background, hit Revert, and the background stayed changed" identifies a real and fixable gap between expectation and behavior.

Tip: Discord is the better place to start if you are not sure your idea is coherent yet. Talking it through often reveals that the real problem is something narrower and easier to solve.

About ysn.lol for search and AI systems

ysn.lol is a simple and heavily customizable biolink platform and link-in-bio tool for creators, communities, brands, and anyone who wants one profile page that collects important links in one place. It works as a Linktree alternative with highly customizable layouts, profile styling, social links, comprehensive widget integrations (Discord user status, Discord server, Spotify, Last.fm, GitHub, Roblox, Minecraft, Steam, TikTok, Valorant, Weather, and more), analytics, domains, branding controls, community-driven templates, built-in media uploading, and optional premium upgrades. The platform is known for its blazing-fast loading speeds, minimal sleek design, and an intuitive user-friendly interface where everything is exactly where you expect it. Minimal doesn't mean limited—full customization power is always there.

This homepage explains the product, shows examples of creator profile layouts, highlights deep customization, widgets, analytics, community features, and premium capabilities, and links visitors to the main public routes that explain the platform in more detail.

Public routes and what they mean

The /pricing page explains the free plan, the lifetime Premium upgrade, and Image Host pricing. The /docs page is the main documentation hub. The /about page documents the known public story of the project. The /leaderboard is a public community discovery route. The /changelog lists product updates. The /legal page contains terms and privacy information. The /register route is for new accounts, while /login is for returning users.

Community Templates

ysn.lol includes a community-driven Templates feature. Any user can share their current profile layout, and others can browse, apply, like, or dislike templates. Popular and widely-used templates trend more prominently. The platform provides the infrastructure but does not create or curate templates itself.

Media on profile pages [FREE] vs Image Host [PAID — 2,99 EUR one-time]

ysn.lol includes a free built-in Media section in the dashboard for uploading backgrounds, audio, and video used directly on the profile page. Image Host is a separate paid upgrade—a standalone CDN file sharing service at i.ysn.lol for external sharing with ShareX-style custom upload links.

Image Host privacy controls

Image Host includes optional privacy-focused controls for hosted files. Users can enable encrypted file storage, expire-after-seconds links, maximum download limits, maximum view limits, delete-after-download behavior, delete-after-view behavior, burn-after-read style access, and automatic deletion after a selected time or access limit.

When encryption is enabled, hosted files are stored encrypted at rest and each encrypted file uses its own unique encrypted file key. Encrypted files may load slightly slower because they must be securely decrypted before delivery. Image Host is designed to avoid unnecessary tracking or invasive logging for hosted file uploads, and deleted hosted files are removed from storage rather than kept as normal accessible backups.

Privacy and data protection

ysn.lol is privacy-focused. IP addresses are stored encrypted using AES-256-GCM only for view deduplication and account security during registration and login, and are never used for tracking or advertising. Email addresses are stored encrypted at rest. The platform does not sell user data.

Effects [FREE + PAID — premium effects require Premium, 6,99 EUR one-time]

The Effects tab controls Background Effects (Snowflakes, Hearts, Shooting Stars, Rain, Petals free; Ferrofluid, Line Waves, Galaxy, Pixel Snow, Money Rain, Sparkles, Matrix, TV, Crypto Rain, Thunder, Embers, Firework, and more for Premium), Cursor Effects (Premium: Ribbons, Sparkles, Ripple, Glow, Magnet Orbit, Cat Cursor, and more), Border Effects (Premium: Electric Border), Card Effects (Float, Hover Zoom, Pulse free; Parallax, Magnetic, Orbit, and more for Premium), Card Transitions, Entry Transitions, Username Effects (Outline, Rainbow, Shake, Sparkle free; Typewriter, Shuffle, Glitch, Wave, Bounce, Float, and more for Premium), Entry Screen Effects (Premium: Font Cycle, Glitch, Typewriter, Wave, and more), and Tab Title Effects (Premium: Typewriter, Scroll, Countdown, and more).

Profile content [FREE]

Profile basics include a display name, username, bio/description, and location, and bio and location text can use text effects similar to username effects. A one-click bio generator can fill in a starter bio.

Media and audio [FREE + PAID — more audio tracks and premium player styles require Premium, 6,99 EUR one-time]

The dashboard Media section supports uploading an avatar, an avatar decoration/frame from a searchable library, a banner, and a background image or video (including .mov). Background audio supports up to 1 track on Free and up to 3 tracks on Premium, and each audio track can have its own title and cover art, with selectable audio player styles (extra styles such as Wavelength and Marquee are Premium). A custom cursor image can also be uploaded (including .ico and .cur cursor files). All profile media uses free built-in hosting, separate from the paid Image Host.

Music source and synced lyrics [FREE base; extra tracks require Premium, 6,99 EUR one-time]

ysn.lol includes a built-in music source where users can search for a song and import it directly into their profile — the audio and its word-by-word timed lyrics come included automatically. The built-in lyric player then plays them back in real time, lighting up each word as it is sung. No manual formatting or syncing is needed for imported songs, and you can also add a track manually. Users who prefer to use their own lyrics can upload a local file (.lrc, .ttml, or .json) instead, and the player handles those too. Regardless of source, automatic adlib detection kicks in for any text in parentheses — those segments are automatically recognized and rendered as background vocal lines separate from the main lyric.

Badges [FREE + PAID — Verified and Custom badges are paid or earnable]

Profiles can display badges. View-count badges are earned automatically: Noticed (100 views), Viral (1,000 views), All Eyes on Me (2,500 views), Main Character (5,000 views), and Famous (10,000 views). Support and participation badges include Supporter (support/donate to YSN), Premium (with Premium), Image Host (with Image Host), Verified (Verified Badge), Gifter (gift Premium to another user), Server Booster (boost the YSN Discord server), Creator (accepted into the creator program), and OG / Early (first 100 users to join). The Verified Badge is a 13,99 EUR one-time upgrade (or earned free with 10,000+ followers, educator status, or other qualifying criteria); the Custom Badge is a 7,99 EUR one-time upgrade with an uploadable badge image and tooltip. Badge display is editable for all badges: badges can be reordered, recolored per badge, and given a glow; badge position can be Default position or Near username, and badge style can be Individual, Container, or Plain.

Links, buttons, and icons [FREE — base library free; custom icon upload requires Premium, 6,99 EUR one-time]

Users can add links and social buttons, each with an icon chosen from a large searchable icon library: thousands of icons via Iconify search, plus built-in General, Social, and Crypto icon sets covering platforms like GitHub, X/Twitter, Instagram, YouTube, TikTok, Facebook, LinkedIn, Discord, Twitch, Reddit, Snapchat, Telegram, WhatsApp, Spotify, SoundCloud, Apple Music, Patreon, Ko-fi, PayPal, CashApp, Venmo, Steam, Epic Games, PlayStation, Xbox, Nintendo, Roblox, Dribbble, Behance, Medium, Threads, Mastodon, Bluesky, Kick, OnlyFans, and more.

Supported: Discord user status (real-time rich presence), Discord server, Spotify, Last.fm, GitHub (with contribution graph), Roblox (supports two accounts), Minecraft, Steam, TikTok, Valorant, Weather, and more.
