Public, private, and secret Spaces

Not every Space works the same way. The privacy setting decides who can find a Space and who can see what’s inside.

  • Public: anyone in REV can find it, see its posts, and join. Great for open, welcoming communities.
  • Private: anyone can find the Space and ask to join, but you have to be a member to see what’s posted inside. Joining may need approval.
  • Secret: invite-only and hidden. It won’t show up in browsing or search; you’ll only know it’s there if you’re invited.

You’ll see which type a Space is when you visit it. If you request to join a private Space, a Space leader approves the request, and you’ll be notified when you’re in.
