Terms of Service
Last updated: January 2025
The short version
Be a decent human. Don't spam. Don't post inappropriate content. We reserve the right to remove anyone who makes the room worse for others.
What this is
available.dev ("The Waiting Room") is a free service that lets developers publicly signal they're available for work. It's provided "as is" with no warranties.
Your responsibilities
- Be honest: Only enter if you're actually looking for work
- Be professional: Your one-liner should be work-appropriate
- No spam: Don't abuse the enter/leave cycle
- No impersonation: Use your real GitHub account
Content guidelines
Your one-liner must not contain:
- Profanity or hate speech
- Links to malicious sites
- Recruiting or hiring posts (this is for job seekers only)
- Advertising or promotional content
- Personal attacks or harassment
Moderation
We may remove profiles that violate these terms without notice. Profiles that receive multiple reports may be automatically hidden. Our decisions are final.
Account requirements
Your GitHub account must be at least 30 days old to enter. This helps prevent spam and abuse.
Limitation of liability
We're not responsible for any employment outcomes, connections made, or missed opportunities. The room is a visibility tool, not a job guarantee.
Changes
We may update these terms. Continued use means you accept the new terms.
