Prosocial Design Pattern Library, Early Access

Central I need help

Hi @JohnFallot,

I guess you have moved the page referenced above and your current online presence is at:

The design library is not yet available I see, so I won’t respond to that. Note that there may be some patterns on this forum to be included, like e.g. Mea culpa mechanism to de-escalate conflicts on social media

I have some feedback about the current site:

  • I’d get rid of SquareSpace. Create your own cookieless static site. There’s great tools and options for that. Consider making it work without JS enabled, and take accessibility requirements into account.
  • A prosocial tip: Never be an anonymous entity that provides an online service. Who’s the “We” in the About page? Who do I contact via the contact form? Who are you, why are you doing this, and what are the other things you do. I’d include information on that.
  • Another such tip. In the Code-of-Conduct you mention “paid events”. Be open and transparent from the start on your business and revenue plans, so you’ll get a proper trust relationship with those community members signing up.
  • Besides the license for the Code-of-Conduct you’ll need to address licensing of community content. This could be CC-BY too, but might also be CC-BY-SA.
  • Because you have cookies, for joining and creating community content you’ll also need a Privacy Policy, and given the site is available in EU it needs to be GDPR-compliant.

Hope you found this feedback useful :slight_smile:

PS. You might be interested in The Flourishment Initiative too.
