purpose

a primary goal of envs.net is to be inclusive to the largest number of contributors, with the most varied and diverse backgrounds possible.

as such, we are committed to providing a friendly, safe and welcoming environment for all. this code of conduct outlines our expectations for all those who participate in our community, as well as the consequences for unacceptable behavior. we invite all those who participate in envs.net to help us create safe and positive experiences for everyone.

This applies to conversation in the any room in the matrix community (#space:envs.net), also in the irc channel (#envs*) on irc.tilde.chat, commits and comments relating to any project in github/gitea spaces and as well as for any services on envs.

envs.net mission

envs.net exists to foster an engaged community for socializing, learning, and making cool stuff

in a mass-media age, it is up to small, intentional communities to gather and work together to provide a space outside of the advertising-laden, profit-seeking, corporate-owned world of social media.

to that end, envs.net strives to be a radically inclusive community where people of all backgrounds and all technological experience levels can come together to learn, to teach, and to delight in one another's creations.

expected behavior

the following behaviors are expected and requested of all community members:

• participate in an authentic and active way. in doing so, you contribute
  to the health and longevity of this community.
• exercise consideration and respect in your speech and actions.
• attempt collaboration before conflict.
• refrain from demeaning, discriminatory, or harassing behavior and speech.
• be mindful of your surroundings and of your fellow participants.
• teach when people need help. don't do it for them.

  discriminatory jokes and language.
