Welcome to Oakland (The Town). Food, culture, events, neighborhoods, outdoors, and real local recommendations.
1) Oakland-first content
Posts should be directly about Oakland (or clearly East Bay relevant).
2) Respect the community
No harassment, hate speech, threats, or personal attacks.
3) No doxxing / “callout” posts
No identifying private individuals, posting personal info, or targeting someone for public shaming.
4) Safety + crime posts must be responsible
No panic-posting or rumors. If sharing safety info, include time/location context and be factual.
5) Keep it useful
Recommendations, questions, and local tips are encouraged. Low-effort posts may be removed.
6) No spam or constant self-promo
Events and local projects are fine in moderation. Repeated advertising will be removed.
7) No illegal content
No instructions or encouragement for illegal activity.
8) Be a good neighbor
Assume good intent, help newcomers, and keep discussions productive.
