What grows here
Codex Gratus is for short acknowledgements — the people, pets, places, and moments that helped you heal, learn, persist, or return to yourself.
- A thank you to a person (named or unnamed).
- A teacher, nurse, neighbour, colleague, coach, or quiet helper.
- A pet or service animal who carried you through a season.
- A sentence, lesson, or small act that changed your direction.
What does not belong
- Targeted attacks, naming-and-shaming, or “callout” posts.
- Medical claims, diagnosis, or instructions to treat conditions.
- Personal data you wouldn’t want indexed (phone numbers, addresses, emails).
- Anything designed to provoke, recruit, market, or manipulate.
If it feels like a performance, a pitch, or a weapon — it belongs somewhere else.
Moderation, quietly
The Community Board is lightly moderated. Reports remove an entry from the public board and route it for review. The goal is simple: keep the space calm.
There are no accounts, no “growth loops”, and no behavioural profiling. Private saves remain on your device.
Writing tips
- Keep it specific: “what they did” or “what changed”.
- Keep it kind: gratitude is not a courtroom.
- If you name someone, consider whether they would consent to being named.
