Our aim is to secure a progressive community by putting platform health before platform growth.
We aim to create a self-governing platform where community-driven processes ensure inclusivity and accountability, without imposing rigid top-down guidelines. Rather than acting as a centralized authority, we aim to empower organizations to maintain collective oversight. Any organization can apply to join the platform, and acceptance is determined by peer sponsorship. We look forward to fine tuning the exact mechanisms of joining with our community after launch.
To maintain a balance of accountability, if an organization is flagged, the flagging individual provides reasons for their concern. A voting process involving the entire network is triggered if a certain threshold of flags is reached. The majority vote determines whether the organization remains on the platform or is banned. This decentralized decision-making process puts the community in control.
Organizations that sponsor a banned organization will receive a strike, with mechanisms for restricting their ability to sponsor further organizations being developed within the community as it grows.
This system encourages careful sponsorship while preventing misuse of platform governance.
Together with experienced activists we are selecting an initial group of organizations that have a proven track record of inclusivity and elevating underrepresented groups. We are still developing our operating principles and will always update them based on community decisions. Questions around flagging, banning, guidelines and rules will always be answered collectively.
If you want to join this process and co-determine how we'll develop and implement processes of community governance, we invite you to request access via this form.
After your application a member of our team will reach out to you.
