More queer, more garden.

People are awesome. People are awesome in different ways. We would like people to be awesome in their own way on our instance. Our goal is to provide an atmosphere where all of us can get together.

To get into more specifics, this means we do not tolerate any harassment or disrespect of our members due to age, body size, disability, ethnicity, gender identity and expression, level of experience, education, socio-economic status, nationality, personal appearance, race, religion, or sexual identity and orientation.

This Code of Conduct covers all activities on Queer Garden.

Instance Team

Queer Garden has two admins: Zoë (@moiety, they/she) and barrow (@barrow, they/them). You can contact them if you have any questions about Queer Garden or if you want to report something.
