Programming.dev finally got official administration guidelines. This document codifies what has up until now only been loosely discussed topics throughout the year in the private administration chat channels.

We hope that by putting the guidelines into writing and making them public, we can ensure a consistent level of moderation by the administration team. But also more importantly, let everyone know by what guidelines and metrics the administration team should follow, making it easier for you guys to hold us accountable and report any instances of an administrator overstepping their role, or decisions you disagree with.

While the primary focus of the document is aimed at administrators specifically, it also includes information to users on how they can contact the admin team if they want to report another admin for deviating from our guidelines.

As always, feedback is more than welcome and we would be happy to discuss any thoughts you may have on our guidelines, nothing is ever perfect.
