Summary
I Updated My Server Rules — To Protect and Include Everyone
Hello friends,
I’ve just updated the community rules for Kadai Kupi Space — the Lemmy instance I host from Sabah, Malaysia.
These updates are made with love and care, to make this space more inclusive, safe, and respectful — especially for people who use AI tools to help with writing, communication, or learning.
Why the Update?
Some people use AI to:
- Help write or fix grammar (especially if English isn’t their first language)
- Express thoughts clearly (like neurodivergent people)
- Translate between languages
- Be more polite or confident in their writing
I believe these tools can help us join more conversations — not block them.
So, I updated our rules to protect people who use AI responsibly. No one should be banned or downvoted just because they used an AI to help. That’s unfair, especially if the content is kind, respectful, and useful.
What’s New in the Rules?
Clear support for AI as an accessibility tool, not just a “tech thing”
Rules against harassing or mocking people for using AI
We now hold people accountable if they abuse their moderation powers to remove AI-generated content without a real reason
You can still use AI — as long as it’s honest, respectful, and not used to mislead or harm others
We All Deserve a Voice
This update is for people who:
- Are autistic, disabled, or neurodivergent
- Are learning English or another language
- Want to be more thoughtful with their words
- Use AI tools to participate more fully online
If AI helps you communicate better — you are welcome here.
If you don’t use AI, that’s okay too — just respect those who do.
Thank you for being part of this small space.
Let’s keep it kind, weird, warm — and safe for everyone.
