Document our "About" and "Server rules"

[mike-burns]

The Mastodon software provides a public interface for an instance's description and summary of their rules. It is customary to use this space to demonstrate our commitment to moderate our instance, both to our users and to those who interact with them.

This commit introduces these rules as Markdown files into the Mastodon repo. This is not the final step -- the agreed-upon text must then be pasted into a textarea. This is simply a place for us to discuss and archive the text, in a format and UX that is familiar.

Alternatively, what if we:

• only allow existing employees,
• state that employees are held to the company handbook (and maybe link to something public),
• provide a description of how we offboard employees when they leave thoughtbot,
• use this space as a reminder for existing employees

?

So based on SSO standardization things will be restricted to current employees for time being. I think this looks good @mike-burns thanks. I'm sure we'll make misc tweaks in the future but I think this is definitely suitable for time being. Appreciate you getting this up

I feel like we may want to revise this once we have one Code of Conduct available online, so in the absence of that, I think this is looking ok and we can improve it in the future.

Yeah agreed. You are right that we should have a CoC that we can point to, but this is to bridge the gap.
