Community and chats

Community

/community is a set of groups, each with posts and replies. The groups are a shared catalogue rather than something you create — the list is the same for every account.

A post is written by you and read by the group. Nothing in your own record is attached to it automatically: posting in a group about sleep does not publish your sleep record.

Chats

/chats is messaging between accounts that are connected. A conversation is one-to-one or a small group, and /chats/new starts one from your connections.

A consultation with a professional is the same mechanism with a different kind on the conversation, so the thread behaves the way every other thread does.

Blocking

You can block someone. A block is enforced on the server, not by a screen declining to render them.

Who you have chosen not to see is your own decision and your own record. It is in the export as People you blocked, which is one of the few things in that file a person might genuinely want a copy of if they ever left.

Reporting

Any post or reply can be reported.

A report is write-only, including to the person who made it

Nobody can read the reports table back — not the author, not the reporter. The person who wrote the reported post is never told who reported them, and a report is deliberately absent from the export for the same reason: a moderation queue that leaks through a data download is the same leak with an extra step.

A moderator can work the queue; only an administrator can answer it. Those are two different permissions on purpose, because adding a role and giving it the power to hide posts in one change is how a role nobody reviewed ends up deciding what other people may say.

A decision always carries a note. The author reads one version and the reporter reads the other — a decision nobody can explain is one nobody dares undo.

What is in the export

Community posts, community replies, the groups you joined, your conversations, who is in each of them, the messages you sent, and the messages you hid.

The other person's words are the other person's record, and they are not in your file.
