Etiquette
Etiquette is the set of unwritten rules that put the people around you at ease. Written down, ours are short:
- Assume good intent; ask before concluding.
- Reply to direct questions, even if the answer is "I don't know yet — will come back to you by Thursday."
- Respect timezones. We span Lagos and the US; use async messages by default and mark things urgent only when they are.
- Keep discussion in the channel where the work lives (see the communication policy) so context is never trapped in a DM.
- When in doubt about anything — your role, a deliverable, a norm — ask a founder. Questions are free; wrong assumptions are not.
