# A simpler profile, game invitations as cards, and more

> Your profile now leads with you — three figures, your streak and your level. Game and yard links in a yard's chat show as cards, you can swipe across the posts to change yards, and Troll War explains itself.

A few changes that went live this week.

## Your profile, simpler

**YOU** now leads with your photo and name in the middle, then three figures in a row: your **posts**, **yards** and **points**. Under them are two tiles, your streak and your level, and **How points, streaks and levels work** to explain them. **Saved**, **Your people** and **What you made** are tiles, your posts show as a grid, and **What you’re into** is at the bottom. Impact and contribution are no longer on the profile. See [Your profile and interests](/guides/your-profile/).

## Invitations in the chat are cards now

When someone shares a CommonYard link to a game or a yard in a yard's chat, it shows as a card instead of a blue link: a Guess the Number duel, a Ludo table, a night of Sasabonsam, a Troll War, a trivia **Beat my score**, a friend's call on a poll, or a yard's own invitation. One button on the card takes you in. See [Chat in your yard](/guides/chat-in-your-yard/).

## Swipe across the posts to change yards

On HOME you can now swipe sideways anywhere on the posts, not only on the sky at the top. The next yard's name shows at the edge as you swipe. See [Get started on CommonYard](/guides/get-started/).

## Troll War explains itself

The first time you set up or open a Troll War, a short card shows how it works in four steps: two teams, troll each other, everyone else judges, most 🔥 wins. Tap **How it works** in the lobby to see it again. See [Play Troll War](/guides/play-troll-war/).
