Community Guidelines

Purpose

What is Dibsicals?

Through Dibsicals, we foster a community of collaboration, inspiration, and support among creators of all kinds. Dibs is a unique platform that empowers creators to claim credit for their work. Creators get creatives timestamped, even the work-in-progress versions, and establish proof of possession. They connect with like-minded creators to create their own tribe to like, share and follow each others’ work.

Code of Conduct

We strive to keep our community a positive space that can be enjoyed by all. We are a community of creators who value respect, diversity, ownership and collaboration. We expect all members to abide by the following rules and guidelines when interacting with others on our platform. We want to achieve a lively place of purposeful thought-sharing and inspiration, and we highly encourage sharing, liking and following the content of your favorite creators. We ask that you follow these guidelines when interacting with others on our platform.
