How and when to use the flag button

Flagging is encouraged — it's the fastest way to keep the community healthy without heavy-handed moderation.

Flag content that is spam, off-topic, or breaks the code of conduct. Do not flag posts simply because you disagree with them. A reply you dislike is a chance to add a better answer, not a moderation case.
