Be sure to follow the rule before you head out.
Rule: You must post before you leave.
Other rules
Behavior rules:
- No bigotry (transphobia, racism, etc…)
- No genocide denial
- No support for authoritarian behaviour (incl. Tankies)
- No namecalling
- Accounts from lemmygrad.ml, threads.net, or hexbear.net are held to higher standards
- Other things seen as cleary bad
Posting rules:
- No AI generated content (DALL-E etc…)
- No advertisements
- No gore / violence
- Mutual aid posts are not allowed
NSFW: NSFW content is permitted but it must be tagged and have content warnings. Anything that doesn't adhere to this will be removed. Content warnings should be added like: [penis], [explicit description of sex]. Non-sexualized breasts of any gender are not considered inappropriate and therefore do not need to be blurred/tagged.
If you have any questions, feel free to contact us on our matrix channel or email.

You joined an instance which is a general community. It has it's own set of rules and typically a few common interests.
You can join communities outside of your instance but you need to follow the rules of both. You may not be able to post NSFW content because of your instance's rules to a community that allows it.
These different views on rules can cause instances to separate from each other in a process called defederation. This has happened with piracy, hate speech, and porn.
New communities will come up under all after someone else in your instance checks it out. Some people browse by all and may choose an instance to create an account in it because of it but the rules are the big thing as far as I'm concerned.
