Welcome to PHP Community on Mastodon!
We're a friendly little Mastodon instance providing a place for PHP developers to discuss topics related to PHP, as well as topics unrelated to PHP. First and foremost, we're about building community, and that doesn't always involve technical discussion, so feel free to go off-topic and have fun.
Code of Conduct
If you believe anyone is in physical danger or doing something that is against the law, please notify appropriate emergency services first by calling the relevant local authorities. If you are unsure what service or agency is appropriate to contact, include this in your report and we will attempt to notify them.
If you believe someone is violating the Code of Conduct, we ask that you follow our reporting guidelines and report it to the CARE team.
Our full Code of Conduct is available at https://phpcommunity.org/policies/conduct/
