Community guidelines
What this place is for
Ask questions, share answers, and vote on feature requests. Report bugs in Q&A with steps to reproduce.
The rules
- Stay on topic. This forum is about Hedwig. Adjacent conversation (email workflows, productivity setups) is welcome when it helps someone use Hedwig better.
- No spam or self-promotion. Links that answer the question are great; links that promote your product, service, or referral scheme are not. New accounts are limited to two links and one image per post for this reason.
- One topic per topic. Search before posting; duplicate requests get merged so votes concentrate instead of splitting.
- No sensitive data. Never post email contents, screenshots with other people's addresses, tokens, or anything you wouldn't want public. This is a public forum, indexed by search engines.
- Report, don't pile on. If a post breaks these rules, use report. A thread arguing about a bad post is two problems instead of one.
Code of conduct
- Respect people. No harassment, hate speech, slurs, or personal attacks — no exceptions, no "just joking".
- Criticize ideas, not people. "This approach breaks when…" is useful. "Only an idiot would…" gets removed.
- Assume good faith. Most wrong answers are honest attempts. Correct them kindly.
- No sockpuppets. One person, one account. Vote manipulation (rings, alternates) removes the votes and can remove the accounts.
How moderation works
- Moderators and the Hedwig team can edit titles for clarity, merge duplicates, lock heated threads, and remove content that breaks these rules.
- First violations usually get a removal and a note. Repeated or severe violations (harassment, hate speech, spam waves) end in a ban — severe ones immediately.
- Removed content shows who removed it. If you think a call was wrong, write to team@hedwig-ai.com and a human re-reads it.
The team's part
The team reads the forum, updates feature-request statuses, and verifies accepted answers. Report errors so we can correct them.
