Community Guidelines

Be yourself. Don't impersonate people, brands, or organizations, or misrepresent your identity or affiliation. Don't create accounts to evade enforcement, and don't use fake engagement, bots, or other forms of platform manipulation to artificially amplify content.

We remove and may report content that threatens safety. Do not:

• threaten, incite, glorify, or promote violence or serious physical harm;
• promote or coordinate terrorism, organized crime, or other dangerous organizations;
• encourage or promote suicide, self-harm, or eating disorders; or
• endanger minors in any way, including any form of child sexual exploitation.

We report credible threats of harm and child-safety violations to the authorities where required.

Healthy debate is welcome; targeted abuse is not. Don't engage in harassment, bullying, or hateful conduct—including attacks based on race, ethnicity, national origin, caste, religion, sex, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, disability, or serious disease. Don't encourage others to harass someone.

Some content must be limited or labeled. Do not post sexually explicit content involving minors (never permitted) or non-consensual intimate imagery. Graphic, violent, or adult content may be restricted, age-gated, or require a sensitive-content label so others can choose what they see.

Don't share other people's private or personally identifying information (such as home address, government IDs, or financial details) without consent, and don't threaten to do so. Don't post intimate images of someone without their consent.

Only post content you have the right to share. Respect copyrights and trademarks. See our Copyright & DMCA Policy and Trademark Policy.

Don't post spam, scams, malware, or deceptive links, and don't engage in phishing or fraud. Don't artificially inflate or manipulate engagement, and don't abuse our APIs or attempt to scrape the Service outside permitted limits.

Don't use the Service to facilitate illegal activity or to buy, sell, or coordinate the trade of regulated or prohibited goods and services, including illegal drugs, weapons, and counterfeit items.

Don't share synthetic or manipulated media — including AI-generated or altered images, audio, or video (“deepfakes”) — that is deceptively presented as authentic and is likely to deceive or cause harm, particularly about real people or events. Don't use AI tools to impersonate a real person's voice, likeness, or identity without authorization, or to create non-consensual intimate imagery. When you post AI-generated or significantly AI-altered media that could otherwise mislead, label it clearly; some features (such as Lyra's AI-involvement disclosure) help you do this. Don't post content designed to deceive people about civic processes or to suppress participation.

When content or conduct violates these Guidelines, we may take a range of actions proportionate to the severity and context, including: removing content; applying labels or age restrictions; reducing the distribution or discoverability of content; limiting certain features; requiring removal as a condition of continued access; and suspending or permanently disabling accounts. Repeat or severe violations may lead to permanent removal. Where appropriate and permitted, we provide notice and an opportunity to appeal.

If you see something that may violate these Guidelines, please report it using the in-product reporting tools, or use blocking, muting, restricting, and muted words to manage your experience. Reports are reviewed confidentially.
