## Platform Forum

The platform forum at [forums.makenot.work](https://forums.makenot.work) is the community space for everyone on Makenot.work.

**What it's for:**
- Platform feedback and feature requests
- Creator-to-creator discussion
- Announcements and updates
- General questions about using the platform

**What it's not for:**
- Individual creator support (contact the creator)
- Off-topic discussion

**Access:** Log in with your Makenot.work account (no separate registration). This space follows our [Code of Conduct](./code-of-conduct.md).

## How It Works

No algorithmic sorting. Threads sort by activity or creation date.

Posts are permanent: no editing or deleting after posting. You can add footnotes to clarify or correct. This keeps discussions honest and preserves context.

Moderation tools include flagging, community bans/mutes, and a mod log for transparency.

## Philosophy

We provide infrastructure for communities. We don't try to be the community.

### What We Don't Build

- **Direct messaging**: Use email, Discord, Signal, whatever your community already uses
- **Social feeds**: We're not competing with Twitter or Instagram
- **Group chats**: Plenty of good options exist
- **Event platforms**: Eventbrite, Luma, and others do this well

We'd rather integrate with good tools than build mediocre versions.
