-Code of Conduct
-===============
-
--  We are committed to providing a friendly, safe and welcoming environment
-   for all, regardless of level of experience, gender identity and
-   expression, sexual orientation, disability, personal appearance, body
-   size, race, ethnicity, age, religion, nationality, or other similar
-   characteristic.
--  Please avoid using overtly sexual aliases or other nicknames that might
-   detract from a friendly, safe and welcoming environment for all.
--  Please be kind and courteous. There’s no need to be mean or rude.
--  Respect that people have differences of opinion and that every design or
-   implementation choice carries a trade-off and numerous costs. There is
-   seldom a right answer.
--  Please keep unstructured critique to a minimum. If you have solid ideas
-   you want to experiment with, make a fork and see how it works.
--  We will exclude you from interaction if you insult, demean or harass
-   anyone. That is not welcome behavior. We interpret the term “harassment”
-   as including the definition in the `Citizen Code of Conduct`_; if you
-   have any lack of clarity about what might be included in that concept,
-   please read their definition. In particular, we don’t tolerate behavior
-   that excludes people in socially marginalized groups.
--  Private harassment is also unacceptable. No matter who you are, if you
-   feel you have been or are being harassed or made uncomfortable by a
-   community member, please contact one of the channel ops or any of the
-   Dragonfly moderation team immediately. Whether you’re a regular
-   contributor or a newcomer, we care about making this community a safe
-   place for you and we’ve got your back.
--  Likewise any spamming, trolling, flaming, baiting or other
-   attention-stealing behavior is not welcome.

-Moderation
-----------
-
-These are the policies for upholding our community’s standards of conduct.
-If you feel that a thread needs moderation, please contact the Dragonfly
-moderation team.
-
-1. Remarks that violate the Dragonfly standards of conduct, including
-   hateful, hurtful, oppressive, or exclusionary remarks, are not allowed.
-   (Cursing is allowed, but never targeting another user, and never in a
-   hateful manner.)
-2. Remarks that moderators find inappropriate, whether listed in the code of
-   conduct or not, are also not allowed.
-3. Moderators will first respond to such remarks with a warning, at the same
-   time the offending content will likely be removed whenever possible.
-4. If the warning is unheeded, the user will be “kicked,” i.e., kicked out
-   of the communication channel to cool off.
-5. If the user comes back and continues to make trouble, they will be
-   banned, i.e., indefinitely excluded.
-6. Moderators may choose at their discretion to un-ban the user if it was a
-   first offense and they offer the offended party a genuine apology.
-7. If a moderator bans someone and you think it was unjustified, please take
-   it up with that moderator, or with a different moderator, in private.
-   Complaints about bans in-channel are not allowed.
-8. Moderators are held to a higher standard than other community members. If
-   a moderator creates an inappropriate situation, they should expect less
-   leeway than others.
-
-In the Dragonfly community we strive to go the extra step to look out for
-each other. Don’t just aim to be technically unimpeachable, try to be your
-best self. In particular, avoid flirting with offensive or sensitive issues,
-particularly if they’re off-topic; this all too often leads to unnecessary
-fights, hurt feelings, and damaged trust; worse, it can drive people away
-from the community entirely.
-
-And if someone takes issue with something you said or did, resist the urge
-to be defensive. Just stop doing what it was they complained about and
-apologize. Even if you feel you were misinterpreted or unfairly accused,
-chances are good there was something you could’ve communicated better —
-remember that it’s your responsibility to make others comfortable. Everyone
-wants to get along and we are all here first and foremost because we want to
-talk about cool technology. You will find that people will be eager to
-assume good intent and forgive as long as you earn their trust.
-
-The enforcement policies listed above apply to all official Dragonfly
-venues; including the GitHub `dictation-toolbox/dragonfly repository`_; the
-`Gitter channel`_; and the `Matrix channel`_.
-For other projects adopting the Rust Code of Conduct, please contact the
-maintainers of those projects for enforcement. If you wish to use this code
-of conduct for your own project, consider explicitly mentioning your
-moderation policy or making a copy with your own moderation policy so as to
-avoid confusion.
-
-Adapted from the `Rust`_ and `Lemmy`_ codes of conduct, which are based on
-the `Node.js Policy on Trolling`_ as well as the `Contributor Covenant
-v1.3.0`_.
