You can share your signal username. Mine is donnietello.01
Once you've shared it, if you're getting a lot of spam you can just change it and it won't change anything about your current conversations. It's essentially just an invite link.
If you change it, do you have to tell all your trusted contacts what you changed it to?
Nope. Its not used for continued conversations. Just for starting them. If you change your username, your contacts will not see any difference.
