Community Guidelines – Engagement Safe
Welcome to Tbtechchef — where culinary passion meets digital innovation, and where delicious curiosity blooms through respectful conversation. Whether you’re an aspiring home chef, a gadget geek in an apron, or a recipe rebel tinkering with smart tools, you’ve arrived at a warm, idea-rich kitchen of shared inspiration. These Community Guidelines exist to help keep our space safe, supportive, and creatively charged for everyone who drops by with an idea, question, or wild three-in-one breakfast bot (don’t worry, we’ve all dreamed it).
Founded by Jorvanna Yelthanna in the culinary-spirited city of Lafayette, Louisiana, Tbtechchef blends smart-kitchen innovation with the bold soul of gastronomy. From voice-controlled air fryers to augmented-reality recipe boards, we explore what’s possible when technology meets taste. But taste isn’t just about what we cook—it’s also about how we connect. That’s where these guidelines come in: to make sure every exchange is rooted in kindness, clarity, and authentic creativity.
1. The True Purpose of This Kitchen
Think of this space as more than a comment section—it’s a sizzling lab of ideas with a generous side of mentorship and shared wins. Whether we’re discussing sous-vide breakthroughs or troubleshooting your first AI-assisted crockpot, our community works best when we lead with the spirit of collaboration.
At its heart, Tbtechchef was built to support invention in the kitchen—ideas that energize, hacks that simplify, fails that teach, and successes that feed body, soul, and digital appetite. We’re here for discussions that dig deep and serve well.
2. Our Core Ingredients (a.k.a. Values)
Every meaningful community starts with a thoughtful recipe. Ours includes five key ingredients:
- Respect: Every perspective should be handled with the same care as a freshly poached egg—gentle, attentive, and never rushed. Listening matters just as much as speaking.
- Kindness: Let your default seasoning be empathy, whether you’re offering feedback or seeking clarification.
- Integrity: Share your truth. Don’t reuse content without credit. Always cite sources, whether you’re quoting a creator or a culinary algorithm.
- Curiosity: Ask big questions. Experiment. Get things wrong, then get better. Curiosity breaks barriers and builds better chefs.
- Inclusivity: Every background, experience level, and kitchen setup is welcome—from high-tech command centers to humble two-burner corners. Everyone has wisdom to share.
3. Cooking Up Engagement
Our community thrives when people participate with sincerity and intention. Here’s what keeps our interactions fresh and flavorful:
- When responding, reflect. Not every question needs a quick answer — some need a thoughtful pause, like a good simmer.
- When posting, clarify. Vagueness is the enemy of great hacks. Be specific in measurements, tools, methods, and timing.
- When challenged, stay open. Others may have different setups, dietary goals, or cultural traditions. That diversity adds flavor, not conflict.
- If referencing a digital or technical tool, include a link or clear description. Knowledge is tastier when it’s traceable.
- Celebrate messes. Yes, really. Failed doughs, rebooted mixers, and burnt attempts are often our finest teachers—and they make the best stories.
Our conversations go beyond “what’s for dinner”—they explore the future and feelings of cooking. Nothing is off-limits if it’s shared with sincere enthusiasm and respect.
4. What Respectful Participation Really Looks Like
In our mixed-media kitchen, respectful participation looks like this:
- Yes to: Generous feedback, curious questions, gratitude, transparent sharing, encouragement for beginners, recognition of innovators.
- No to: Trolling, spam, shaming, gatekeeping, misinformation, unsolicited self-promotion, or loudly claiming “the only right way” to do anything (spoiler: there isn’t one).
Think of every post or reply as plating a dish. Are you serving it with care? Is it ready to be enjoyed by others, even if they digest it differently than you would?
5. Our Approach to Moderation
Moderators at Tbtechchef operate like sous-chefs at a seasoned line station—discreet, purposeful, and aiming to enhance the flow, not disrupt it. Our goal is to protect creativity, not suppress it. That means sometimes pulling content that endangers, disrespects, or misleads. Comments that contain hate speech, harassment, misinformation about health or equipment, or abusive behavior may be gently but firmly removed.
Our guiding principle is gentle correction, not punishment. Like correcting a recipe in the test kitchen, sometimes it just needs a rework and a second round.
See something offbeat or need support? Send us a note at [email protected]. We aim to answer quickly and thoughtfully.
6. Attribution and Generosity in Sharing
In our community, sharing is creative currency. But just as recipes carry stories, they also carry authorship. Here’s how we keep the credit honest (and delicious):
- Link back when borrowing ideas, even loosely inspired ones.
- Say where you learned it, even if it’s from a now-outdated device that taught you the perfect egg doneness formula.
- Don’t screenshot someone else’s idea without tagging or naming them.
We want you to share. We just want everyone involved to feel recognized when their inspiration takes off—because acknowledgment builds community bonds stronger than even ramen noodles on a cold night.
7. Privacy and Personal Space Are Sacred
Food and tech might bring us together, but when it comes to sensitive information, this isn’t the place to air it. Please don’t post personal data like your address, phone number, or credit card info (yikes, please don’t). Also, don’t post images or messaging that assumes someone else’s consent. They own their meal—and their likeness.
To understand exactly how your info is used on our platform and what protections are in place, kindly review our:
Kitchens run on precision—we try to be just as exact with the care of your digital data.
8. Collaboration is the Secret Sauce
The best meals are shared. The best tools, tested. And the best communities? Co-created. We wholeheartedly encourage content submissions, tool reviews, comparison breakdowns, and DIY instructionals. If you’d like to get involved in a more formal, flavorful way, check back soon for links to our upcoming contributor and partner platforms.
Meanwhile, if you’ve got an idea, a product worth featuring, or an unusual success story involving a drone and a Dutch oven (yes, really), reach out to us. We’re always open to discussing new ways to create multi-sensory, tech-inspired nourishment together.
