Omarchy is not going to adopt a formal Code of Conduct because those turned out to be struggle-session processes in the last turning. But we are going to play nice. We're going to be courteous, professional, and composed in our direct interactions with users, competitors, and even haters. Because that's what's going to pave the path to the win. That does not mean we have to act as vendors. Nobody is entitled to anyone else's free time or volunteer contributions. And we're not going to tolerate people who act like entitled customers buying a service contract from a company. Because we don't sell one, and we aren't one. This is going to be difficult sometimes. Because people are unreasonable! Especially on the internet! But if you return fire with fire, the only thing that'll burn is our reputation. The troll who triggered you into flashing your teeth won't face any consequences, but every spectator who saw it will judge you. I'm not going to tell you how to act anywhere else. You don't owe this organization a suit-and-tie demeanor at all times either. It's fine to be quirky, irreverent, silly, and even occasionally get upset. You do you. But when you're engaging with our fast-growing community, please keep these thoughts in mind. That's how we play nice but win. --- Posted this to the fast-growing Omarchy army of volunteers on our internal Basecamp.
