I've been an admin and moderator for chaos.social for nearly five years now (😱). A good enough reason as any to reflect on the Good/Bad/Ugly aspects of community management.

@dazinism @rixx So you managed to democratically maintain and even enhance an #interphobic #coc.
Instances like yours are why I went explicitly went out of my way to find an instance which included protections for people like me, which chaos.social has; in addition to the being a bunch of anarchists and geeks.
You lot, however, have clearly derived your policy from the Contributor Covenant and its predecessor, the Geek Feminism Wiki policies. Both have the interphobia baked in (on purpose).
@dazinism @rixx Anyway, you might not want to discuss this with me. As a public signatory to the Darlington Statement, I'm automatically in breach of your instance's CoC as intended by its original author from the GeekFeminism Wiki (I believe it is still online, but as an archive), Tim Chevalier.
You can read the Darlington Statement here:
@adversary I tried to read up on your criticism as I use that CoC too and want to improve.
But I failed to find anything striking to my eye (which wouldn't surprise me as I am a cis man) or any public criticism that refers to the Covenant specifically.
