Community Safety

DARKO is built for friends hanging out. Here's how we keep it that way.

Private by default

Rooms aren't indexed. Only people with the link can join.

No recording

Voice/video is P2P. We don't record or store your media.

Report anything

Report users or rooms that violate our rules. Phase 7 ships this UI.

Moderator tools

Room owners can kick, mute, and ban. Server-side enforced.

Capacity limits

Rooms cap at 8 participants. P2P mesh realistically supports 6 voice/video.

Server-side auth

Roles are never trusted from the client. Every permission check happens on the server.

Community rules

  • ✕No harassment, hate speech, or threats
  • ✕No content that exploits or harms minors
  • ✕No sharing copyrighted content without rights (we don't bypass DRM)
  • ✕No malware, phishing, or illegal content
  • ✕No attempts to disrupt, overload, or attack the service
  • ✓Be excellent to each other

Reporting a violation

In Phase 7, you'll be able to report users and rooms directly from inside any room. For now, if you encounter a serious violation, open an issue on our GitHub with the room slug and a description of what happened.
