Community standards

By being friendly and respectful with each other we can create a nice atmosphere on aMastodon.uk

Posting: You can post almost anything you want, but not everything. We expect our community members to abide by the community standards. The rules and community standards apply to both content and behaviour. Our moderators take the context in which posts are written into consideration.

Continuous improvement: The community standards are not fixed, it’s a working document that can be improved upon until we find something that works well. Most things on aMastodon.uk are a work in progress and we’re experimenting with different approaches to build a nice community.

Community timeline: Our community timeline is for genuine human to human interaction. Bots, computers, cross-posters and organisations are encouraged to post in unlisted mode so that only their followers see their posts. Listed posts are those that appear in the community (“local”) and federated timelines. They are publicly visible and followers see them. Unlisted posts does not show up on local and federated timelines, but they can be seen by your followers and are publicly available on your profile page.

Languages: aMastodon.uk is language-specific server with English as the supported language. You can follow people on other servers using other languages but please post in English so that we can moderate fairly.

Automation: To use automated tools, such as cross-posters, please ensure that you are donating monthly to aMastodon.uk Cross posting from other social media sites is allowed when you own both accounts and post in unlisted mode. Cross-posting” is the automatic copying of posts from one platform to another. If you use apps for manual posting to several platforms simultaneously those posts are considered original and allowed. Bots and semi-automated accounts should be marked as such.

Bots on other servers: May be limited if they post too frequently and suspended if they post too much media. It’s a way to keep costs low and to prioritize genuine human interaction on our server. We may of course revise this moderation policy from time to time. Bots can be very useful, it’s not that we don’t like bots. It’s just about being able to afford them and at the same time offer a good human experience.

Organisations: It’s important to use an official e-mail when you create an organisation account. If there is a mismatch between the e-mail used for sign-up and the organisation name, the account may be considered spam and suspended. For example when the e-mail is name@gmail.com or name@yahoo.com instead of name@your-organisation.com. Get in touch if you have questions or if your account has been erroneously suspended. Try to find the right tone and frequency while posting and consider posting just once or twice a day, alternatively post in unlisted mode for more frequent posts.

Nudity: All content must be suitable to an audience from 16 years old. Mild nudity such as a photo of a statue or an old oil painting is probably going to be okay. Sexually explicit content isn’t allowed.

Zero-advertising: There is zero-advertising. You can not pay us to display ads on the community timeline. Organisations can post anything they want in unlisted mode, so that only their followers and profile-page visitors see it. The rule of thumb is that marketing material shouldn’t be visible to community members, unless they already follow your account.

Federation: aMastodon.uk suspend some servers which are not aligned with our community standards and rules. We’re generally not publishing the list of blocked servers as we don’t want to give those who harass people or host illegal content any attention. You can ask our moderators in a direct message if you want to know if a specific server is suspended.

Excessive posting: Some users on other servers post with a high frequency, there are bots posting every 10 minutes every day. When people on aMastodon.uk follow high frequency posters that content is pulled into our servers. For capacity and economical reasons we may suspend high frequency people and bots, particularly if they are on other servers and followed by inactive users on our server. This is just to keep our costs under control. If our club members want us to unsuspend any such bots we may be able to do so, unless there are issues with them violating other rules.

Flooding the feed: Avoid flooding the community timeline or the home feed of your followers by posting super many posts in a row. Typically some kind of balance is best. Context is important too, sometimes it’s okay to post a lot.

Friendly and respectful atmosphere: Some content is legal but may be removed anyway if it’s suspected to be inauthentic, inflammatory, spammy or misinformation.

Political activism: We welcome political groups from established political parties.

Political extremism: Advocacy of political extremism from either far-left of far-right side of the spectrum may be limited or removed. Particularly if the activism is borderline illegal or focused on revolutionary change by fighting and violence. Civilized discussions may be allowed, it’s the propaganda we want to avoid.

Religious content: You’re welcome to be religious and express that. You’re welcome to celebrate your religious holidays and traditions. But respect other peoples religion. If your content is focused on converting people it may be limited or removed. If your religious content is inflammatory it may be removed.

Conspiracy theories: Don’t post conspiracy theories.

Shitposting: No “shitposting” is permitted.

Signup-promotion: Don’t sign up with the intention of pulling in content from users on third party servers for promotional purposes. Inactivity in combination with suspected sign-up promotion may have your account and/or the users on the third party servers limited or suspended.

Anti science content: Anti-science content such as anti-vaccine movements, may be removed.

Inauthentic accounts: We may suspend suspected inauthentic accounts, especially if they seem to belong to a web of other inauthentic accounts on other servers. This can happen without e-mail notification, as it makes no sense to notify inauthentic accounts when they are being removed.

Federated content: Our community standards also apply to content that is pulled in from other servers through people following accounts there. Users on our server may be suspended for pulling in too much guideline violating content from other servers. This particularly apply to people who just follow people on other servers without being active on our server by posting or replying to posts.

Disagreement: Do not debate moderation actions in public posts. Direct message our team or use e-mail. We listen and answer questions up to a certain point, not forever.

Inactive accounts: From time to time we may delete accounts that haven’t been used during the last three to six months. The shorter time span could be relevant if the user never participated in the community, for example by never ever posting anything. You’re welcome back if your account has been deleted due to inactivity, but there is no guarantee that we can restore your old username.

Access: The administration of the service reserves the right to revoke any user’s access permissions, at any time, for any reason, except as limited by law.

Data: This site is not meant to be a backup or permanent repository for your information, posts or media. Additionally, your media is being downsized on original upload. You can export your posts, but there might be technical issues, so we recommend that you keep a backup elsewhere

This network of interacting instances is known collectively as The Fediverse, thousands of independently run servers with small (sometimes not too small) communities that co-mingle on the federated timeline.

There are many ways to join The Fediverse. You may also be interested in Pixelfed or PeerTube which also use the ActivityPub protocol but are focused more on photos and videos respectively.
