+# 🤖 AI Allowance
+
+To support core contributors in integrating AI tools into their workflow while maintaining flexibility and cost control, we are introducing a monthly expensable allowance for AI services.
+
+### Benefits 
+
+We are equipping core contributors with a crucial skill set for the future. As AI becomes more integrated into workflows, those who effectively leverage these tools will have a competitive advantage. Key benefits include: 
+
+   * Enhancing core contributor productivity by effectively integrating AI into daily work 
+   * Improving documentation and knowledge sharing within the organization 
+   * Ensuring AI is used responsibly and effectively in alignment with organizational needs
+
+### Allowance Details 
+
+You can expense up to USD 60 per month for AI-related services. This allows core contributors to choose the tools that best fit their needs without incurring unnecessary costs for those who do not use them.
+
+### Expense Guidelines
+
+You can expense: 
+
+   * AI service subscriptions, API credits, or tools directly aiding work productivity 
+   * AI-powered coding assistants, research tools, and documentation aids 
+
+You cannot expense: 
+
+   * Non-work-related AI services
+   * Premium AI features not directly contributing to IFT work 
+   * Hardware or devices for AI-related activities 
+
+Please keep receipts and submit your expenses through Expensify under the Software & subscriptions category following expense reimbursement guidelines. 
+
+If your total expense exceeds the allowance, only claim up to the approved amount. 
+
+If you're unsure whether an expense qualifies, reach out to People Ops for clarification.

+# Collaboration
+
+We use multiple tools for knowledge management and collaboration across the organisation. The basic platforms you need access to from Day 1 are: Google Suite, ProtonMail and Notion. On top of this, each individual teams may use other platforms such as Miro, CodiMD etc. As you start working with various teams, you will be provided access to these platforms.
+
+
+## Google Suite
+
+Google suite is used for emails, various types of document collaboration and video calls. You will be provided with a @status.im email address which will give you access to the whole Gsuite. 
+
+
+## ProtonMail
+
+Google does not align with our values as an organisation and so there is currently a project to move away from Google and start using ProtonMail as our email provider. You will be getting a secondary email address on-top of your existing @status.im address. 
+
+You can read about this change, [when to use Gmail vs. ProtonMail](https://www.notion.so/Phase-1-Replace-Google-Mail-w-Proton-Mail-34d999eacb27446dacdbb426075fe6da) along with the more details about the project and timelines.
+
+
+## Notion
+Notion is a collaborative Wiki, just like Confluence (if you have ever used it). Most teams collaborate on this platform and this is part of knowledge management across the organisation.

+# 🎤 Events and meetups
+
+As a IFT core contributor, you may have the opportunity to speak at or attend external online or in-person events. 
+
+The community is an essential part of the Web3 ecosystem. Ecosystem, domain-specific, and internal events and meetups are networking and growth opportunities. And we strongly encourage you to be part of them!
+
+Here you'll find helpful information to make the most out of organising, speaking, or attending events.
+
+## What events does IFT sponsor
+
+IFT will consider sponsoring and covering the costs for any online or in-person event with a clear purpose. That means it must align with IFT's strategy and goals. This includes, but is not limited to:
+
+   * Ecosystem events such as DevCon, ETH[city], ETHCC, Hackathons, blockchain weeks, etc.
+   * Domain-specific events for your role for career purposes.
+   * Events and meetups to promote IFT or our projects to potential new core contributors.
+   * Internal events and meetups to prepare a product/project launch or work together.
+   * Moderating or speaking opportunities related to IFT.
+
+> ✨ Remember that when you're at an event, you're an ambassador for IFT’ projects and everyone who shares our values. Don't forget that and spread the word! You never know who's listening and might contribute to IFT thanks to you 🙂
+
+> Always speak to your team lead and discuss the impact going to an event will have on yourself or IFT.  
+
+> 💡Before attending an event, ask your Talent Partner to generate a QR code for our job pages that you can share with anyone interested.

 ## What we expect

 * We expect you to show us you can prioritise correctly, get things done, and find answers in an increasingly autonomous way. In most projects, there will be a first project scoped out for you. Regardless of that being the case, make sure you ask your lead where you can start, clarify expectations for your role, or seek feedback on how you're doing, early and regularly.
 * We expect you to be accountable for your goals and deadlines. We don't micromanage - if by any chance you realise you're stuck, make sure to flag it and discuss within your project and project lead whether or not it would be best to change course.
 * We don't see each other much, and written communication is what we see the most from each other. We'd like for everyone to be clear, friendly, and helpful to everyone else. Great communication is key! 
-* Given that Status is a highly distributed organisation, working with core contributors across multiple time zones and with minimal physical collaboration, we expect a consistent and high volume of communication to keep your fellow core contributors updated on your progress to ensure that the projects can efficiently be coordinated and delivered in the appropriate time frames. There's no expectation that you reply to each ping immediately. Do your work and avoid interruptions while checking your messages at least a couple of times a day. If you know you won't have time to look into something right away, let the other party know when they can expect to have an answer to organise their work efficiently.

If you see that a fellow core contributor is stuck, offer to help or ping someone who can. We're all in the same boat trying to achieve the same goals so let's help each other!

+# 🖥  Laptops and devices
+
+Having the proper setup is fundamental to ensure you can work comfortably to successfully deliver services to IFT and our projects. We hold our principles dear and support you as a core contributor with some of the tools you might need to succeed in providing services using secure, decentralised devices. 
+
+Here you'll find some helpful information to get yourself set up with the right equipment you may need.
+
+## ☑️ Available equipment
+
+Core contributors have the potential option of leasing devices from IFT to ensure that they can provide their services. We have a list of pre-approved equipment considered within their project budgets to the extent that you need certain devices to deliver your services.
+
+While IFT provides you the flexibility to purchase the appropriate devices in line with the capped amounts stated in this section, IFT ultimately owns such devices. Following your purchase, we will subsequently lease you back the device which you have purchased.
+
+For the purposes of purchasing devices, reach out to your Project Lead and PeopleOps partner for approval. 
+
+The standard setup for everyone includes a laptop, a Keycard, a Yubikey, and a Ledger. 
+
+For each item we have defined a budget. Your spend will stay below the defined budget, in most cases. When this happens, it is not an option to use the difference towards the cost of other items.
+
+* Laptop: up to USD 3,000
+* Mic and headphones: up to USD 120
+* Keycard: ping the #keycard channel to get a code 
+* Yubikey: you can reimburse one (approx USD 75)
+* Ledger: you can reimburse one (approx USD 80)
+
+> Most core contributors should be able to effectively perform their work using standard equipment, but if you're struggling to participate or you need other equipment to perform your role successfully (for example, you need a better quality webcam to record videos or a higher quality mic to record demos for IFT), then please speak to your Project Lead or PeopleOps partner to discuss your needs on a case by case basis. For those that are approved to receive higher quality equipment, we recommend the **Logitech Brio 4K Webcam** and the **Rode NT-USB USB Condenser Microphone**. 
+
+Following the cessation or termination of your services to IFT, you have the option of purchasing from IFT any equipment you purchased in accordance with this section. 
+
+## 🏪 How to get your devices
+
+1. Choose official or trusted vendors to buy your devices
+2. Seek approval from your Project Lead or your PeopleOps partner
+3. Upon getting okays from your Project Lead and PeopleOps partner, proceed with the purchase.
+4. Go to your `profile > assets` in BambooHR and `Add assets,` filling all device information.
+5. Once registered, [request a refund](../finance/expense-reimbursements.md) by adding the expense to Expensify and your next invoice.
+6. You can reimburse custom expenses. Try to avoid international shipping when possible. Buy from vendors within your country or economic area. 
+7. Enter into a leasing agreement with IFT in respect of the device you have purchased. 
+
+## ℹ️ FAQ
+
+* __Who owns the devices which I’ve purchased__
+
+   IFT is the owner of the devices which you have purchased. IFT will lease back these devices to you in order for you to deliver your services. We have found that this is a flexible and convenient arrangement to ensure that you can obtain the appropriate devices in a timely manner to deliver your services.
+
+* __What if I don't have enough funds to buy the device before reimbursement?__
+
+  If cash flow is an issue, please ping your People Partner and we'll help come up with a solution! 
+
+* __What if my devices becomes outdated?__
+
+  At the 3 year mark, if your device needs an upgrade, speak to your PeopleOps partner about purchasing a new one.
+  
+* __What happens if I accidentally damage a device?__
+
+  You should treat the devices as if they were yours. If the damage was due to factors beyond your control, please obtain a quote for a repair and let your People Partner know. If the cost is reasonable (i.e., less than ~75% of the trade-in value of the asset), we would ask you to go ahead and get the device repaired. Then, submit the repair expense cost for reimbursement.
+  
+* __What happens if my services agreement with IFT finishes?__
+
+  Please check out [this guide](../offboarding/device-logistics.md) for your options on recycling or buying back devices.

+# Movement Guidelines
+
+Movement to a different role within IFT offers many benefits. It is an important process that helps us keep valuable expertise within the organisation, allows core contributors to develop additional skills and enhances the strength and adaptability of our teams.
+
+
+To ensure fair, transparent, and efficient movement to the new role, we have established the following guidelines for core contributors to follow:
+ 
+
+### Open Roles
+
+All open roles can be found on our websites ([IFT](https://free.technology/jobs), [Logos](https://boards.greenhouse.io/logos), [Status](https://status.app/jobs)) or by checking out the hiring channels in the Logos Discord and Status App. 
+
+For more information regarding the requirements of any roles, we suggest contacting the Talent team directly rather than the hiring lead. 
+
+We believe in transparency and open communication between core contributors, team leads,  and People Ops. Before applying for a different role, core contributors should discuss their interests with their current team lead and/or People Partner to evaluate their fit and motivations.
+
+### Eligibility Criteria
+
+We expect a core contributor to meet at least the minimum required skills/attributes, which will be clearly described in the role’s description before applying. 
+
+Whilst we don’t have strict rules, as a general guideline, we’d expect someone to have contributed to their current project for 12 months before moving to a different team. 
+
+### Application and Screening Process
+
+All applications are carefully reviewed based on skills, experience and alignment with the role requirements. 
+
+The screening process varies depending on the role. Some roles may involve a few interviews and possibly a task. The process may be more extensive for other roles, typically including interviews with program leads and Co-Founders. 
+
+The hiring team will likely consult with a core contributor's current team lead to gain insights into their skillset, motivations, and team fit. 
+
+### What happens if a core contributor successfully moves to a new team/project?
+
+Congratulations! If the decision is favourable, together with the team leads and People Partners, a transition plan will be formed to move the core contributor to the new role. It is important to respect the current team by providing an extensive handover and allowing time for a backfill to be embedded. Overall, the goal is to ensure that the transition into the new internal role is as smooth and successful as possible, setting the core contributor up for success.
+
+### Is there a trial period for moves?
+
+Whilst there is no official trial period, we consider the first 12 weeks within the new role as the trial. During this period, the team leads are encouraged to provide ongoing feedback, check in’s and support as necessary.

-
-Having the proper setup is fundamental to ensure you can work comfortably to successfully deliver services to Status. We hold our principles dear and support you as a core contributor with some of the tools you might need to succeed in providing services to Status using secure, decentralised devices. 
-
-Here you'll find some helpful information to get yourself set up with the right equipment you may need.
-
-## ☑️ Available equipment
-
-Core contributors have the potential option of leasing devices from Status to ensure that they can provide their services. Status has a list of pre-approved equipment considered within their project budgets to the extent that you need certain devices to deliver your services.
-
-While Status provides you the flexibility to purchase the appropriate devices in line with the capped amounts stated in this section, Status ultimately owns such devices. Following your purchase, Status will subsequently lease you back the device which you have purchased.
-
-For the purposes of purchasing devices, you need to raise the request via [SpiffWorkflow](https://prod.mod.spiff.status.im/) to get okays from your Project Lead and PeopleOps partner.
-
-The standard setup for everyone includes a laptop, a Keycard, a Yubikey, and a Ledger. 
-
-For each item we have defined a budget. Your spend will stay below the defined budget, in most cases. When this happens, it is not an option to use the difference towards the cost of other items.
-
-* Laptop: up to USD 3,000
-* Mic and headphones: up to USD 120
-* Keycard: ping the #keycard channel to get a code 
-* Yubikey: you can reimburse one (approx USD 50)
-* Ledger: you can reimburse one (approx USD 80)
-
-> Most core contributors should be able to effectively perform their work using standard equipment, but if you're struggling to participate or you need other equipment to perform your role successfully (for example, you need a better quality webcam to record videos or a higher quality mic to record demos for Status), then please raise the request via [SpiffWorkflow](https://prod.mod.spiff.status.im/) and People Partner can support you with your needs on a case by case basis. For those that are approved to receive higher quality equipment, we recommend the **Logitech Brio 4K Webcam** and the **Rode NT-USB USB Condenser Microphone**. 
-
-Following the cessation or termination of your services to Status, you have the option of purchasing from Status any equipment you purchased in aordance with this section. 
-
-## 🏪 How to get your devices
-
-1. Choose official or trusted vendors to buy your devices
-2. Raise a request for goods/services via [SpiffWorkflow](https://www.notion.so/Request-Goods-or-Services-9891dc90f4424a0ebd3407db1991c203?pvs=4#3ef6bd6141f84ff496cfea785a514a5a) prior to purchasing the devices.
-3. Upon getting okays from your Project Lead and PeopleOps partner, proceed with the purchase.
-4. Go to your `profile > assets` in BambooHR and `Add assets,` filling all device information.
-5. Once registered, [request a refund](../finance/expense-reimbursements.md) by adding the expense to Expensify and your next invoice.
-6. You can reimburse custom expenses. Try to avoid international shipping when possible. Buy from vendors within your country or economic area. 
-7. Enter into a leasing agreement with Status in respect of the device you have purchased. 
-
-## ℹ️ FAQ
-
-* __Who owns the devices which I’ve purchased__
-
-   Status is the owner of the devices which you have purchased. Status will lease back these devices to you in order for you to deliver your services. We have found that this is a flexible and convenient arrangement to ensure that you can obtain the appropriate devices in a timely manner to deliver your services.
-
-* __What if I don't have enough funds to buy the device before reimbursement?__
-
-  If cash flow is an issue, please mention it in the request (select "Payment method" <> "Reimbursement") and ping your People Partner and we'll help come up with a solution! 
-
-* __What if my devices becomes outdated?__
-
-  At the 3 year mark, if your device needs an upgrade, just raise a new request via [SpiffWorkflow](https://www.notion.so/Request-Goods-or-Services-9891dc90f4424a0ebd3407db1991c203?pvs=4#3ef6bd6141f84ff496cfea785a514a5a).
-  
-* __What happens if I accidentally damage a device?__

+We use Expensify to store and report the expense details and receipts incurred on behalf of IFT during the project's development. Please note that this guide is based on the current version of Expensify and not the new Expensify experience. 

 ### Account setup

-You'll need to head to the [Expensify](https://www.expensify.com/) web or download the mobile app and sign in using your Status email to get started. Please input your full name as it appears in your BambooHR profile when setting up your Expensify account.

+
 ![expensify-login](../images/expensify-login.png)

-### Selecting the right policy
+If you don’t have access to your account, message us on our `#finance` channel to create or update your account. 
+Once you have logged in please ensure that you are claiming your expenses under the correct policy. Your policy should match the correct project for example "IFT - Finance" or "Status-Mobile"

-Once you have logged in please ensure that you are claiming your expenses under the correct policy. Your policy should match the correct Status entity and your invoicing currency.

-![expensify-policy](../images/expensify-policy.png)
+### 2. Go to Reports

-### Uploading expenses
+Please use the ‘Reports’ tab instead of the ‘Expenses’ tab as this will allow you to submit multiple claims together. This makes it easier for you and Finance to approve and track your expense claims. 

-We kindly ask you to upload expenses as they incur or by the end of a trip to avoid complications like old or lost receipts. 
+![expensify-login](../images/expensify-reports.png)

-Go to the `Expense` tab on either the web or mobile apps to upload expenses manually or by scanning them:
+### 3. New Report

-![expensify-new-expense](../images/expensify-new-expense.png)
+Create a new report for your expenses. One report can include multiple expenses hence it is important for you to submit this as a report and not as an individual expense claim. 

-   1. Make sure to fill or review all the fields as the scanning feature isn't always reliable. Pay special attention to amounts and currencies.
-   2. You should claim expenses using the date they incurred. For example: if the purchase happened on Jan 10th and you're uploading or requesting the reimbursement on Jan 14th, the correct expense date would be Jan 10th.
-   3. When paying for a group (i.e., a meal shared with other contributors from Status), please list all those in attendance in the `attendee's` field.
-   4. Choose a category for your expense and add a detailed description of how's it business-related. Include information such as the trip it belongs to, who approved it, what budget it comes from, whether or not you've paid for other contributors (i.e., group meal), and any other data you consider relevant.
+![expensify-login](../images/expensify-new-reports.png)

-#### Example
-  * Project Event Expense
-    * Category: Events
-    * Description: "Devcon Conference, Berlin - Taxi from LHR airport to conference with 1 other project member, Joe"

-  * Another project Event Expense
-    * Category: Meals & Drinks
-    * Description: "People Ops Meetup - Evening meal on May 26th with 3 others: John, Jane, Joseph"

-![expensify-expense-details](../images/expensify-expense-details.png)
+![expensify-login](../images/expensify-add-expenses.png)

-   5. If it's your first expense of the month, create a new report for all costs incurred during that period. Otherwise, add it to an existing one.
-   6. We suggest submitting an expense reimbursement report only when the total value is above USD 50.
-   7. You **must** submit expenses as an expense report. An invoice with the amounts will not suffice for reimbursement. 

-![expensify-expenses-expenses](../images/expensify-expenses-expenses.png)
+### 5. New Expense
+Create a new expense. Do not use previously created expenses from the available list. It’s important to create a new expense even for recurring expenses as we need up-to-date information for each claim. Any outdated expense claims will be rejected. 

-> ⚠️ You **always need to submit a receipt with each expense you log.** Make sure to take photos or keep digital receipts handy - missing receipts might result in your reimbursements not being approved. We understand that in some rare cases, this is not possible. When not possible, please provide as much info as possible and why no receipt is possible.
+![expensify-login](../images/expensify-new-expenses.png)

-### Submitting an expense report for approval

-Uploading expenses and submitting an expense report are different actions within Expensify. Once you've uploaded all your receipts, it's fundamental that you submit the report for Finance's review and approval.
+### 6. Fill in the expense claim

-Finance checks the submitted expenses against your purchase/travel requests raised in [SpiffWorkflow](https://prod.mod.spiff.status.im/), and if the expenses follow the approved by Project Leads amounts, no additional approval will be required.
+<b> It is mandatory to complete all of these fields according to the requirements below! Please ensure that you complete a separate claim for each expense. Joint expenses will be rejected and will require 2nd submission. </b>
+ 
+<i> Merchant (Field 1) </i> - The name of the company/brand/service provider used for the expense claim

-You must submit the expense report and get it approved before being able to include it in your invoice. To do that, click the `Reports` tab and `Submit` your report.
+<i> Date (Field 2) </i> - Date when the expense took place. This needs to match the date that is on the expense invoice/receipt which you will attach in ‘Field 8’

-> ⚠️ Only **approved** expense reports should be included in the monthly contributor invoice. 
+<i> Total (Field 3) </i> - Either the total amount spent or the maximum allowable amount per claim (e.g. for coworking or hardware expenses). If you are claiming the expense in full, please record the exact amount as seen on the invoice/receipt which you will attach in ‘Field 8’

-![expensify-report](../images/expensify-report.png)
+<i> Currency (Field 4) </i> - Choose the same currency as on the receipt/invoice of your expense (shown in ‘Field 8’). Expensify will automatically calculate the correct exchange rate for your invoicing currency. 

-Please follow these links if you need help with [creating expenses](https://community.expensify.com/discussion/4560/how-to-create-expenses-manually) and [submitting reports](https://community.expensify.com/discussion/4561/how-to-submit-a-report/p1?new=1) on Expensify. If you need further help, reach out to the Finance team, and we'll be able to guide you through the process.
+<i> Category (Field 5) </i> - Choose the category of your expenses (e.g Hardware, Travel…)

-### Adding the expenses to your monthly invoice
+<i> Attendees (Field 6) </i> - If this is your own expense, then please leave it as it is; however, if you attend a team meal and you paid for everyone else’s meal as well, please tag them in the attendee's fees as this expense covers multiple contributors. 

-The finished and approved report from Expensify will show the total for each expense category. For example, if you have several costs in one category, Expensify will show the following:
+<i> Description (Field 7) </i> - Please specify the event you are attending and the reason/additional information for the expenses. This is an important field and will enable us to track event spending.

-![expensify-categories.jpg](../images/2021/08/Exp-3.png)
+<i> Document (Field 8) </i> - attach an invoice/receipt that proves your expense claim and confirms the details shown in fields 1-7.

-Your invoice should only contain the total per category, not each expense item.
+<i> Events (Field 9) </i> - for all travel expenses select the event you are attending. If the event you are going to is not available, please message us on our Discord #ask-finance channel.
+
+![expensify-login](../images/expensify-fill-claim.png)
+
+### 7. If you have multiple expense claims repeat steps 4 - 6.
+
+### 8. Submit Expense Report
+
+  8.1 Click ‘Submit’
+  8.2 Check you are submitting to your correct <b> budget owner </b> 
+  8.3 Your approval will be sent to the budget owner for review and approval. Once it is approved, you will be able to add it to your monthly contributor invoice. 
+  8.4 Submit the report 
+
+![expensify-login](../images/expensify-submit-claim.png)
+
+
+### 9. Adding expenses to your monthly contributor invoice
+
+Your final expense report will be presented in USD so please convert this to your invoicing currency. Please use the FX rates available on https://www.xe.com/currencytables/
+
+Only approved expenses should be included on your monthly invoice. If your expense has not been approved, it is the Budget Owner who will need to do this before Finance can reimburse your expenses.
+
+Ensure that each Category of expense is recorded as a separate item on a separate line. For example, all hardware expenses can be recorded together on your monthly invoice however, travel expenses would require a separate line/item for each category of travel expenses (Flights/accommodation/meals, etc). For travel and event expenses, please state the event on your invoice. 
+
+As guidance, we have added these categories in the invoice template [here](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1B3x3vNVFHB8S9r0ylFLTugH9iTHpyx52/edit?usp=sharing&ouid=112284182777623149574&rtpof=true&sd=true). Please, ensure your invoice has the same category names as the Expensify reports to avoid delays with the expense claim approval.
+
+Your expenses claimed on Expensify <b>must</b> match the expenses claimed on your monthly invoice.  An example of this is shown below:
+
+![expensify-login](../images/expensify-invoice.png)

 ## When are you getting reimbursed

 In order to reduce delays in payments, invoices received after the invoice deadline (15th of the month), will be paid in the payment run of the following month. This applies to all invoices (contributors and third-party suppliers). We will still issue the normal reminder before the cut-off date, but we will not chase invoices after that date.

-Expense claims are submitted via Expensify as usual, but each report should span a calendar month and only expenses marked as approved on Expensify should be included on your invoices. This will allow Fiance to review and approve expense claims as soon as they arrive. This means that the sooner you submit your expense claim, the sooner it will be reviewed by the Finance team.
-
 Expense reimbursements are paid together with the monthly compensation invoice. If you have questions or concerns regarding the expense reimbursement date, please get in touch with the Finance team, and we'll be happy to help you with that.

We build decentralised technologies ranging from protocol-level infrastructure to application software — forming an open-source peer-to-peer technology stack.
+# 🚀 Introduction

-Status strives to develop open-source software (for example, the [Status](https://status.im/get/) app) that can be utilised by people as a secure communication tool to uphold human rights. The Status app is designed to facilitate the free flow of information, protect the right to private, secure conversations, and promote the sovereignty of individuals.

 ## 👋 Contact requests and ad-hoc group chat
-
 Because Status is a fully p2p network that is not under the control of any authority (including ourselves! 🙂), there are a number of mechanisms we have introduced to mitigate spam.

-One of these mechanisms is ‘mutual contacts’. What this means is that in order to start a 1on1 conversation with another person, or to add somebody to an ad-hoc group chat, you first need to be a mutual contact with that person. So it is recommended that you send ‘Contact requests’ in Status to all the other CCs that you may need to chat with outside of the Status Internal community space.
-
- [Here](https://contacts.status.im) is a useful link to the Status CC’s contact list which contains everyone's chat keys (and names/emails etc).
-
-Like Discord, Status also supports small ad-hoc group chats. Unlike Discord, which only supports 10 participants in each ad-hoc group chat, Status currently supports 20 participants and hopefully we can further increase this number in the future. So if you need to have a small private group chat about something, give this functionality a try!

 (If you are already experienced with reporting bugs you can skip this section)

 One of the reasons we dogfood is to identify bugs! So if you think you have run into a bug, it would be much appreciated if you follow these instructions to report the issue:

-1. Go to the [Status Desktop repo](https://github.com/status-im/status-desktop/issues) on GitHub and have a quick look to see if the issue has already been reported. If you see that the issue has already been reported, you can leave a comment on the issue saying “I’ve experienced this bug” and add any additional information (if any) from your experience that’s not already in the bug report.

 Don’t worry about accidentally creating a duplicate bug, this happens all the time and the Desktop team will deduplicate any duplicate bugs reported.

 2. If after a quick skim you can’t see a bug report that matches the issue you’ve encountered, click the green ‘New issue’ button to create a bug report. In the bug report, try to include the following:
-
 - the version of Status Desktop you are using (you can see this by going to Settings / About in the app).
 - the OS version you are using e.g. Windows 10, Ubuntu 20.04, etc…
 - If possible, numbered steps of what to do to reproduce the bug.

 To gather and prioritise this feedback, we have set up a ‘User Voice board’ for Status Desktop on Feature UpVote. We plan to use a user voice board like this (but obvs. styled nicer to be on-brand 😉 ) with external users to capture their feedback after we launch our MVP, so now is a great opportunity to give this method of collecting user feedback a trial run on ourselves.

 The idea behind a user voice board is simple - anybody can post an improvement idea or feature request, everybody can upvote requests that are important to them, and designers and developers working on the desktop product can respond to these suggestions.

-* Ease the transition to a more open mobile internet.
-* Help anyone, anywhere, interact with Ethereum, requiring no more than a phone.
-* Foster links with the wider Ethereum DApp community and showcase what the ecosystem has to offer.
-

-
-Today, when you are first exposed to the Status app, you might see an instant messenger and wonder, "What's the big deal? After all, it’s just another instant messenger, right? What makes the Status app different and more importantly why should I bother working on it?"

-In one simple word, Decentralisation.
-
-Now, that word might not have much meaning to you - it might even sound like a buzzword - but in our context, decentralisation has the potential to fundamentally  change the way we organise socially and to rebuild the Internet as it was originally imagined – a commons for innovation. By decentralising all the things, we are changing the very foundation of civilisation, providing a new infrastructural base that impacts everything else above, from our greatest institutions to our daily social interactions

-## 🗒️: A Letter to Status by Jarrad Hope 30 July 2018
-
-So we're getting to an organisation level where broadcasting communication is probably the most effective to reach everyone, and often I take it for granted that I've been with the project for longest, and quite frankly there was many years of experience, reading, thinking and research that lead to our project's creation. And I realise now my role should be mostly that of an educator, at least what I (think I) know, and I certainly don't know much at all.
-
-I'm going to take a few weeks off, mostly just to pause and reflect on Status and life, but before I check out I wanted to write up a little bit about the world as I see it and provide some thoughts on various aspects, this is about as close to the strategy/north star document will get from my contributions, I do encourage for you to take these ideas and make them your own.
-
-So here I am, writing a letter to you (and to myself).
-
-Before I continue, you need to know that what I say isn't gospel, Status is just as much yours as it is mine. You are an active participant and I invite you to actively shape it as your own. That is the nature of an open-source project, and that idea extends beyond just code. What I can only do, is do my best to guide and give suggestions. Remember, you via Status are entrusted by the greater community to build a collective good. Let's do right by them and by our own self-determination.
