              String bio, String dob, int followers, int following, 
              int posts, int isFollowedByMe, int isFollowingMe)

              String bio, String dob, int followers, int following, 
              int posts, int isFollowedByMe, int isFollowingMe,
              boolean isPrivate, boolean isFollowRequestApproved)

​
Example

{
  "userid": "user_456",
  "username": "janedoe",
  "profilepic": "https://example.com/profiles/janedoe.jpg",
  "bio": "Photography enthusiast | Travel lover",
  "dob": "1995-06-15",
  "followers": 1234,
  "following": 567,
  "posts": 89,
  "isFollowingMe": true,
  "isFollowedByMe": true,
  "isPrivate": false,
  "isFollowRequestApproved": true
}

​
Usage Notes

  • The isFollowedByMe and isFollowingMe fields are derived from integer values during construction (>0 = true)
  • The isPrivate field determines whether the user’s content requires follow approval to view
  • The isFollowRequestApproved field is only relevant when isPrivate is true and indicates whether a pending follow request has been approved
  • Profile statistics (followers, following, posts) are updated as the user’s activity changes
