Feedback welcome! Here's the TL;DR list

  1. Listen more to more Black people
  2. Post less – and think before you post
  3. Call in, call out, and/or report anti-Blackness when you see it
  4. Support Black people and Black-led instances and projects

Other suggestions?

there’s a difference between voting down something because it’s not great in a community and because you’re trying to curate ALL

This right here 👆 ALL has its purposes, and none of those are "serving your individual perfect home feed". It becomes a tyranny of the norm. It is/was the biggest problem with Reddit, I'm surprised despite my own instincts to see that it has migrated here.
