Participation

Membership

Everything in the Commons is free. Guests, Participants, and Members take part in different ways, and Membership comes through affirming the Commitments.

Free participation

A Guest can read and explore. A free account makes you a Participant. Affirming the Commitments makes you a Member, and Membership stays free.

The table below shows what each way of taking part opens.

The Commons App

The Commons App is a separate, optional paid product with additional features. It is not Membership, and buying it changes nothing about how a person belongs here.
