What does it mean to add a friend?

Mylinia isn't about who has the most friends, it's about how deep your closest friend can know you. Adding someone as a friend means letting someone into your private world. The benefits are as follows:

1. They will appear on your Friends page. Their passions will be aggregated in your friend's tag cloud so that you can see what your friends are passionate about and reach out to them for support based on their passions when you need help getting to the next level.

2. Whenever you tag something with a passion that one of your friends has, it will automatically go to all of your friends who share that passion. As a result, you support multiple people at once whenever you make a recommendation without having to think about who else you know has that passion.

3. They can see you profile if you ever take your profile off of the Fully Public privacy setting.

How are footsteps calculated?


Footsteps are the currency exchange among Mylinials. They symbolize the value you have created in other people's lives through giving them support on their journey.

The Footsteps Equation is as follows...

10 FREE footsteps
+ 1x the # of supports you give
+ an additional 1, 2, or 3 footsteps the receiver gives to you based on the value of the recommendation to them*
+ 2x the # of people you forward profiles to
+ 2x the # of people that accept your invite
+ 1x the # of people you invite
+ 1x the # of times you give footsteps to one of your supporters by rating them
= TOTAL FOOTSTEPS

In order to earn footsteps, you must be logged in.


* This doesn't apply if you give supports to a passion page instead of directly to an individual
