Be kind and constructive
Challenge ideas without attacking people. Harassment, hate, targeted abuse, scams, and threats do not belong here. Help newcomers find their footing.
Make your contributions useful
Provide context, credit sources, avoid duplicate posts, and share only content you have the right to publish. Disclose AI assistance and review its output before posting.
Respect privacy and boundaries
Do not share another person's private information. Only moderators and higher staff can send direct messages to users. Report problems instead of escalating conflict.
Keep the community safe
Use the report action on content that may break these standards. Moderators review context, record decisions, and may restrict accounts. Staff should explain decisions and correct mistakes.
