Sup Everyone,

My name is Bert and I am the admin for this group! Super excited to be on Mantel and make this as cool of a place as it can be for those interested in breaks!

What kind of things would you like to see more of in this group? Have any ideas on how we can get more people engaged? How can we make this space unique?

Drop your idea in the replies!

My DMs are also always open! Please feel free to reach out any time. Looking forward to connecting with as many of you as I can!

Happy Collecting,

Bert

We’ve got a few new features rolling out, here's what's new:

Share What You Love
You can now share individual posts, Group pages, and user profiles. That wild pull you just saw? That Group everyone should be in? Send it. Tag it. Pass it on. Because every time you share something cool, you’re helping bring more collectors into the conversation—and that’s how this community grows.

Pin Posts in Groups (Web Only for Now)

Group admins and mods can now pin posts in specific channels, whether it’s a welcome note, community rules, or a post worth spotlighting. Pinned posts stay at the top (but members can hide them if they’ve already seen them).

Block + Report in DMs
We’ve added the ability to block and report users directly from your DMs. It’s simple, it’s discreet, and it’s here to make sure your inbox stays safe and respectful.

More on the way soon. Appreciate you all sticking with us as we keep building this thing, one update at a time.

Update the Mantel app

- Mantel Team

One of our most requested features is finally live—Direct Messaging is now available! Whether you’re talking shop, sharing a crazy pull, or just connecting with fellow collectors, you can now chat one-on-one.

How to DM on Mantel:

• Tap the chat icon on the top right corner of your screen.

• To start a new chat, tap the ➕ icon in the top right and search for the Mantel member you want to message.

• Or, head to a user’s profile and tap the same chat icon there.

• From there, just send a message and start the conversation.

Messages from people you don’t follow will land in the “Requests” tab at the top of your inbox. So don’t forget to check there for new community messages!

Start a convo, and connect with your fellow collectors! Update the Mantel app

Quick Note: There’s currently a bug where some text may not wrap properly and gets cut off on the right edge. We’re on it, and a fix is coming tomorrow. Thanks for your patience!

Update: The text wrapping issue has been fixed, just restart the Mantel app and you’re good to go.

Important Note: If you’re still on version 1.1.1 on the mobile app and experiencing an infinite spinning loader, updating to v1.1.3 will fix the issue.

We’re excited to introduce an update that enhances visibility and engagement within our community.

What’s New

• Group Posts in Latest Feed – See all Mantel Group posts in real time, making it easier to discover new conversations.

• Effortless Group Discovery – If you see a post about a collectible you’re passionate about, just tap “Join Group” and instantly connect with collectors who share your love for it.

• Polls on Mobile (Coming Soon!) – The polls feature you’ve been using on the web isn’t quite ready for mobile yet, but it’s coming in the next update!

We’ve got even more features on the way, and we appreciate your patience and support as we continue making Mantel the place for collectors.
