Operating principles

A useful room needs rules

The goal is a private Slack community where infrastructure peers can talk freely about hard calls, tradeoffs, and lessons without turning the space into a feed or funnel.

Speak candidly

Members can share lessons without having every detail flattened into a public take.

No screenshots

Conversation stays in the room unless someone gives explicit permission to quote or attribute.

Vendor-light

Useful evaluation notes are welcome. Pitching, prospecting, and disguised sales motions are not.

Peer quality first

Membership is curated manually so the room remains practical, vendor-free and worth returning to.

Applications reviewed manually
