Welcome to Growers Social, the perfect online community for green thumb enthusiasts! Whether you're a gardening pro an amateur grower or a newbie farmer, Come grow with us! We also love cats here.

Welcome to Growers Social!

This server was primarily set up to be a home for all green thumbs. We, unfortunately, will be limiting registrations to manual approval due to spam sign-ups. Generally, this process takes less than 24 hours on an average day.

When attempting to register please list the reason you would like to join this specific instance that pertains to growing things.

E-mails may be delayed when registering, if need be try to resend them as needed. You might also check your spam box for these if they don't show in your inbox.

We tend to delay defederating with other servers as much as possible. We reserve this for truly horrific site content or spam that is harmful to our members or illegal in the United States. We leave the nitty gritty up to you to mute out as you choose. This includes threads.net which is not suspended here.

We are a like-minded social group, don't feel as though all posts have to be about what you grow. Rather we want to create a small tight-knit community full of social interactions. In addition to grown items please feel free to share your daily life, interesting technologies, pets & animals, and anything that makes you, well you.

Code of Conduct

This document lays out the ground rules for participating in the growers.social community. It is intended to protect all members of our community from harassment and to ensure that our community is as welcoming and inclusive as possible. This is a working document, so the growers.social team may amend this CoC to better meet these goals in the future.

The following guidelines are not a legal document, and the final interpretation is up to the administration of growers.social; they are here to provide you with an insight into our content moderation policies:

1. The following types of content will be removed from the public timeline:
   
   
   1. Excessive advertising
   2. Uncurated news bots posting from third-party news sources
   3. Untagged nudity, pornography, and sexually explicit content, including artistic depictions
   4. Untagged gore and extremely graphic violence, including artistic depictions
   5. Fake news, anti-vaccination spam
   
   
2. The following types of content will be removed from the public timeline, and may result in account suspension and revocation of access to the service:
   
   
   1. Racism or advocation of racism
   2. Sexism or advocation of sexism
   3. Casteism or advocation of casteism
   4. Discrimination against gender and sexual minorities, or advocation thereof
   5. Xenophobic and/or violent nationalism
   
   
3. The following types of content are explicitly disallowed and will result in revocation of access to the service:
   
   
   1. Sexual depictions of children
   2. Content illegal in the United States
   3. Any holocaust denial or Nazi symbolism
   4. Conduct promoting the ideology of National Socialism
   
   
4. Any conduct intended to stalk or harass other users, impede other users from utilizing the service, degrade the performance of the service, harass other users, or incite other users to perform any of the aforementioned actions, is also disallowed, and subject to punishment up to and including revocation of access to the service. This includes, but is not limited to, the following behaviors:
   
   
   1. Continuing to engage in conversation with a user that has specifically requested for said engagement with that user to cease and desist may be considered harassment, regardless of platform-specific privacy tools employed.
   2. Aggregating, posting, and/or disseminating a person’s demographic, personal, or private data without express permission (informally called doxing or dropping dox) may be considered harassment.
   3. Inciting users to engage another user in continued interaction or discussion after a user has requested for said engagement with that user to cease and desist (informally called brigading or dogpiling) may be considered harassment.
   
   

These provisions notwithstanding, 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.

Goals

• Provide a friendly, safe, and welcoming environment for everyone, regardless of the level of experience, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, disability, personal appearance, body size, race, ethnicity, age, religion, nationality, political affiliation, or other similar characteristics.
• Create a supportive community, where people freely share their passions and are excited and positive about each other’s successes.
• Provide a venue for casual conversations.

Non-Goals

While it’s important to know what growers.social is, it’s just as important to understand what we’re not. growers.social is not:

• A free speech zone. growers.social is a community with specific — and high — standards of behavior. If you want to exercise your full free speech rights, you can do so somewhere else; while on growers.social, you should agree to follow the community rules set out in this CoC and be respectful to fellow fediverse folk.
• An advocacy space. There are many important, controversial, and political issues; and advocating for what you believe is important. Remember when making your opinion your posts must remain respectful and violating this your post may be removed at the opinion of the administration team without communications.

Reporting Volations

If you notice a toot that violates this code of conduct, please report it. It is easy to assume that someone else has already reported a toot, but it is easy for everyone to feel that way and no one to report the toot.

1. Sexually explicit or violent media should not be posted, there are other options better suited for this.
2. No spam or advertising.
3. No racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, xenophobia, or casteism.
4. No incitement of violence or promotion of violent ideologies.
5. No harassment, dogpiling, or doxxing of other people.
6. No illegal content.
7. Use a content warning when sharing news items or politically related media. We're here to be social and respectful, politics can be an unwieldy beast and we'd really appreciate not dealing with it.
8. When creating an account here note the service is still small and self-funded. I'm don't soliciting payments for this service and intend to keep this running as best as I can. Service interruptions can happen and in this case, I will try my best to bring everything back online as soon as possible.
