Federation policy

For security and safety reasons, we do not presently publish our instance-wide moderation policies to the public, but instance users may view the policy by logging in.

Utmost care is taken to prevent metadata leakage to other instances, including the use of authenticated object fetch requirements. Administrators of other instances are encouraged to send any concerns or questions to the admin team concerning our instance-wide moderation policies, including to request a list in Mastodon's standard CSV format of current moderation policies.

Moderation policy (Code of Conduct)

User behavior and content are required to comply with US federal laws and the Revised Code of Washington. Content and behavior which is not in compliance is expressly forbidden and may result in account termination and, in some cases, reporting to authorities as required for our own compliance.

User behavior and content is also expected to abide by the server rules, outlined below:

Organization and project accounts are by invitation only.

Accounts belonging to organizations and project accounts are by invitation of the moderation team. These accounts are expected to uphold the values of this community to a greater extent than normal accounts.

For a multitude of reasons, corporate accounts are not welcome on Treehouse. We recommend running dedicated instances for corporations.

Identity verification requirement to use this server.

In order to sign up for an account, your identity must either be verified by the moderation staff, or you must be explicitly invited to use the instance by a current member.

To streamline the identity verification process, please provide links to other examples of your presence online. This will allow our team to determine if you would be a good fit for our community.

Be kind to each other.

To foster a healthy community, we expect interactions to be kind and empathetic. If you find yourself getting annoyed or frustrated with a conversation, we encourage you to step away for a moment and regroup your thoughts.

No violence.

Content which describes explicit violence towards others is explicitly forbidden. Ranting and similar content is allowed but it may be beneficial to the community at large and its moderation staff to use a content warning to clarify the intention behind the content.

No fascism, white supremacy, etc.

Content relating to fascism, neo-fascism, Trumpism, white supremacy, male supremacy, alt-right ideology, and so on, is explicitly forbidden. Accounts trafficking in this content will be banned with no possibility of appeal.

No colonialism or nationalism.

Content relating to nationalist or colonialist ideology is explicitly forbidden. Accounts trafficking in this content will be banned with no possibility of appeal.

No racism, homophobia, transphobia, etc.

This instance is intended to be a safe space for LGBTQIA+ and PoC people. Accounts which are not compliant with this policy will be banned with no possibility of appeal.

No religious extremism.

Content relating to the promotion of religious extremist ideology is not allowed, for the same reasons that all of the other content types above are not allowed. Accounts trafficking in this content will be banned with no possibility of appeal.

Use content warnings for explicit content.

Explicit content such as, but not limited to, adult content, content including extreme gore, depictions of violence, and any content which may trigger panic responses in individuals with common phobias (such as arachnophobia) must be marked sensitive and content warned.

If moderators have to fix your posts to comply with this policy, you will be given a warning. After multiple warnings, your account may be suspended or terminated at the discretion of the moderation staff.

Reporting violations of this Code of Conduct.

Users may report content which they believe to be either illegal or a violation of server rules in the Mastodon web interface.
