Instance rules
  1. We suggest using your radio callsign as your username. If you don't have one yet, plan to change it soon, want to avoid doxing, or just enjoy listening, that's ok too.
  2. Please be respectful of others. Their age, gender, sexual orientation, gender identity, background, preference for transistors over vales, etc. are all _NOT_ reasons to be a twit
  3. Anyone is welcome to report inappropriate behaviour, they will be listened to, and action will be taken. This will be anything from a warning, to banning. Moderation decisions will be made using the Paradox of Tolerance.
  4. Expect anything you post on mastodon.radio to be public, including direct messages, that way you can never be surprised or embarrassed
  5. Any images or videos uploaded to mastodon.radio _MUST_ have an appropriate textual description. If you need help with this, please ask!
  6. Your right to free speech does not supersede my right to call you out and kick you out for being a dick
  7. No spam, no commercial advertising (occasional personal listings are OK), no sexually explicit or violent media (yes that includes pictures of your gun), no threats of violence.
  8. No illegal content - this server is hosted in UK
  9. When apply for an account, if you've actually read these rules, please end your "Why do you want to join?" with the phrase "hippo cornflakes"
