Community Guidelines

Welcome to Mediolano, a decentralized protocol for creators and communities. These guidelines are designed to foster a respectful, inclusive, and collaborative environment for all participants.

1. Introduction

Mediolano is not a product—it’s infrastructure for humanity:

Free to use, fork, and build on.

Open-source and auditable.

Designed for global accessibility.

Committed to ethical innovation and decentralization.

Encourage open-source innovation and DAO participation.

Creator Sovereignty: Every contributor retains full control over their work and identity

Decentralized Integrity: Actions are made transparently, without centralized gatekeepers.

Open Collaboration: Contributions are welcomed from all skill levels and backgrounds.

Respectful Dialogue: Disagreement is welcome; disrespect is not.

Public Good Orientation: Mediolano is a protocol for collective benefit, not private gain.
