a lil' site for Richmond, PDX neighbors away from big platforms
how it works
Need something, have something to offer, want to alert neighbors to a (non-prejudiced) safety concern, or even better, a get together? just start a post, or surf other posts and post a reply to them.
the rules (for now)
Don’t be a jerk. Avoid being a jerk by always assuming positive intent and being respectful of one another, even if the other person is being a jerk, even if that person has privilege. Alert admin of the jerk and let them deal with it as they can. If you’re a jerk back, we’ll boot you both, even if you scream about tone policing. Pretend we’re at a dinner party together, and the only thing we need to collectively believe in is being good neighbors. No advertising for now. We’ll come up w a directory for that later.
why
Away from meta & x, easier than signal, less chaotic than discord. This site is privately hosted, open sourced WordPress using the P2 theme for organizing. You can request your data be deleted anytime, we will never sell or give away your data, and there is no mechanism, nor will there ever be a mechanism for money to exchange on site. If people act poorly or it becomes a pain in the patoot, we’ll just close it down.
