## Best Practices for daily.dev User Search | ||
|
||
Facing issues during searching your colleague or Ex-Boss or ex-Girlfriend here's some method to easily search them with optimized techniques: | ||
|
||
### 1. Write names with correct spelling | ||
|
||
If you want to find the exact person try to make the spellings correct. Go to downside of search bar and can see easily who are more people with same names. | ||
|
||
🚫 **Not Recommended**: "Writing incorrect names." | ||
✅ **Recommended**: "Writing their correct names." | ||
|
||
### 2. User Existence | ||
|
||
It is better that you know that they are using this platform or not, because only people who have made this profile are accessible. | ||
|
||
🚫 **Not Recommended**: "Finding random people. " | ||
✅ **Recommended**:"Finding people who have tech-o-philia." | ||
|
||
|
||
|
||
By putting these best practices to work, you can find the developer or techie you're finding out and wants to stalk them. So go ahead, and find out whether your girlfriend is techie or not! If not found, don't regret you deserve better. 🤓 | ||
|
||
## The Fine Print | ||
|
||
Please note that many users don't directly put their name as their username so it is hard to search people like them so try to ask them for their profiles and then it is all easy and can find out easily as the user search engine is very accurate about the names and can find anyone across all users. If you find something that seems off or unclear, we encourage you to double-check with other trusted sources. Your feedback is invaluable to us, especially as we're still in the beta phase. Thank you for understanding and for being a part of our community! |
