# Community

The SOMA community is decentralized. Anyone is free to start and maintain their own space for the community to gather and submit a pull request to edit this page to add a link.

There is no concept of “official” or “unofficial”, however, each gathering place has its own moderators and rules.

When adding a new community, please append it at the end of the existing list as a form of courtesy.
