Handling harassment
If you are being harassed, please report the user using the "…" button and then "Report." For urgent concerns, please DM a moderator.
If you engage in harassing behavior, the moderator may take any action they deem appropriate, such as a warning or an expulsion.
The above rules may change at any time, and you may be banned at any time based on the moderators' judgment.
Privacy policy
What will we do with your data? Nothing. How will you be influenced by advertisers? You won't; brands and non-humans (other than fun/useful bots) are banned.
How will we aggregate your data in order to improve your service? We won't.
We will never share your data with anyone else, except in the case of valid legal requests . Please don't put me in that situation!
More privacy information:
Understand that this instance is run by myself, and (as is the case with all Mastodon servers) I potentially have access to your data, including DMs.
For truly private data sent between two people, Mastodon offers no end-to-end encryption. So use Signal or WhatsApp for the things you really want to be private.
