05 / Respond safely

React, follow notifications and report a post

Use lightweight reactions for useful replies, notifications for direct activity and reports for content needing review.

Reactions acknowledge a post without adding another reply. Signed-in members receive private in-app notifications for relevant activity and can optionally enable reply email from Your account. Report sends the selected post and your reason to the moderation queue; it does not publicly accuse the author or automatically remove the content.

Reactions, notifications and reports require a signed-in account; reports always require human moderation review.

A report creates a review item; it does not remove a post automatically.
