  1. Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.

  2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

Ask Meta?

Could be anti bot protection, or a feature where you can instantly start recording for creating new posts.

I don't install shit like Facebook, Instagram or TikTok.
