### Pagination

Collections MUST support pagination, using the following URI parameters:

- `offset`: The number of items to skip before returning the first item. This is a zero-based index.
- `limit`: The maximum number of items to return. This is a one-based index. Implementations MUST support a minimum of `1` and a maximum of `40` items.

```http {{ 'title': 'Example paginated collection request' }}
GET /.versia/v0.6/entities/user/1234/collections/followers?offset=10&limit=20
Host: b.social
Accept: application/vnd.versia+json
```
