Code of Conduct

The "good hour" for all

In all publications and interactions on la bonne heure and in the Fediverse, we ask you to do this in respect of the "bonne heure" (good hour) for all. What we mean by this is to cultivate and demand respectful interaction with one another; to remember the consequences of your actions (in relation to the world and the future); to let time pass—especially as a social life—far removed from all considerations of efficiency and profit. So we can all go to sleep early, like the hero in Proust's "In Search of Lost Time".

la bonne heure is also a protected space for minorities

By your behaviour, you enable all users and visitors of la bonne heure and the Fediverse to participate without harassment, regardless of age, body size, disability, ethnicity, gender characteristics, gender identity and expression, level of experience, education, social status, nationality, personal appearance, race, caste, skin colour, religion or sexual identity and orientation.
You are committed to acting and interacting in a way that contributes to an open, welcoming, diverse, inclusive and healthy community.

The la bonne heure etiquette

These are examples of behaviours that contribute to a positive environment for the community:
  • Show empathy and kindness towards everyone
  • Respect different opinions, points of view and experiences
  • Give constructive feedback
  • Accept constructive feedback with dignity
  • Take responsibility
  • Apologise to those affected by your mistakes
  • Learn from experience
  • Focus on what is best not only for you as an individual, but for the community as a whole

The following behaviour will result in your user account on la bonne heure being blocked:
  • You use sexualised language, images or symbolism

  • You attack someone personally or politically

  • You harass someone, whether publicly or privately
  • You publish other people's private information without their express permission
