The Way the Server Works

Politics With Other Servers

"Be conservative in what you send and liberal in what you receive." - Netiquette

• We federate with the whole fediverse.
  That being said, instances that are a common source of content that breaks our rules, or are a source of nuisance might be either:
  • Silenced, where anyone can follow anyone, but posts will be hidden by default.
  • Suspended, which prevents almost all communication with this instance.
• If you're managing a server and believe we have silenced or suspended you unfairly, please reach me on my email.

Administration

• For security purposes, the staff here have access to more information about the instance users.
  • Staff have access to all Followers-only posts.
  • Moderators are able to access to specific Direct posts only if you report them.
  • Administrators are able to access all Direct posts through the database.
    (Not something we usually do, but we want to let you know that Direct posts are not a secure communication channel to share, say, your passwords.)
• Currently, the website is operated by these wonderful people:
  • Antoine / Gakamine - Administrator (me !)
  • Vicenzo - Moderator
  • immychan - Moderator
