Community Guidelines

We started Fabric to grow the social fabric, one in-person conversation at a time. 

 

Our world is more interconnected digitally but more disconnected socially than ever before. Everywhere, social division is growing, loneliness is spreading, and anxiety is rising. Our social fabric is threadbare. 

​

Fabric turns our phones from walls into windows, revealing the thoughts of the people around us, and inviting infinite possibilities for conversation and connection right where we are.

​

The more we use Fabric, the more we talk; the more we talk,the more we laugh; the more we laugh, the more we trust; the more we trust, the more good we can do together.

​

Fabric can turn a room full of strangers into a room full of people who share common threads. With Fabric, our daily routines can spark ever changing possibilities for conversation and connection. Fabric makes any place a meeting place and even a public square. With Fabric, we can meet the abundance of human kindness and imagination, and we might just come to trust there is always more than enough to go around.

​

At Fabric, we create moments where we are. We look forward to being part of yours.

Here’s how you can use Fabric:

 

  • You be you. You look great on the inside. And what you think matters.

  • Be where you are. You’re not missing out.

  • See where you are. If there are kids around, keep it kid-friendly.

  • Use your inside voice. No need to shout. Everyone can hear you.

  • Be curious. You never know. The post that makes you roll your eyes could belong to your next date or your future boss. Dare to learn more.

  • Look again. That post going on about the team you hate belongs to someone who loves sports as much as you do.

  • Let human happen. Sometimes the longest way around is the shortest way home.

  • Don’t like what someone says? The answer to bad speech can be more speech. The answer to really bad speech can be even more speech. Participate.

  • Bystanders vote for the bully. Report abusive or threatening speech to the nearest authority. Stand up for the kind of community you want to be part of.
