Run by Matyas, who pays for the site and lets everyone in.

Nothing here is readable without signing in. Every question says who can see it — on the form, on its page, and in the email.

Members see the links, notes and comments everyone shares. A question asked to everyone can be read and answered by every member, including people Matyas lets in later. A question sent to some people is visible only to them and the person who asked. Matyas can read every question; the ask form says so.

Answers are written before they are read: they open to you once your own is saved, or on the question's release date — the Friday of its digest week — whichever comes first. The person who asked, and Matyas, read them as they arrive. Remarks on answers and the asker's updates open the same way. Marking something interesting shows your name, never a count, to whoever can see the thing; the models never see marks.

Your email or phone, your last initial, and what you wrote about how you know Matyas are visible to Matyas alone.

What leaves by email: the weekly digest, which carries paragraphs about what was shared and said, with counts and links, and never a member's name or exact words; questions, to the people they were sent to, with the question and the number of recipients; sign-in codes; and receipts for links you email in. Names stay on the site.

Two AI models read your words to write those paragraphs: Claude Opus 5.5 drafts, and GPT-6.1 Sol checks. Every request to them runs under zero data retention, or is not sent. Twilio sends phone codes and sees your number. Cloudflare sends the email and hosts everything.

Page extracts and the drafts behind a summary are kept 30 days. An emailed-in link the site could not place is held 7 days, then dropped; the email itself is never kept. Sign-in codes live until they are used or expire. Records of who approved or removed whom are kept 90 days. What you shared, answered, remarked and commented is kept until you delete it; a mark lasts until you unmark.

Post only what is yours to share: nobody else's private details, and nothing meant to hurt.

Matyas may remove anything posted here.

Three ways out. Leave ends your access and keeps what you wrote, under your name. Delete my account erases everything you ever wrote, including comments on other people's links, remarks on their answers, and your marks. Matyas can remove you, which works like leaving; you are not told a reason. Emails already sent cannot be recalled.

Questions about any of this go to Matyas.
