See Something? Report It
If you see content that violates these guidelines, use the Report button on any list, item, or comment. You can also email [email protected].
We review every report. A report is not an automatic removal — we evaluate each one on its merits. We'll never share your identity with the person you reported.
If your content was removed and you think it was a mistake, you can appeal the decision.
The Bottom Line
Listry is a place to organize and share knowledge. Make lists about what matters to you. Say what you think. We only step in when content is illegal, exploitative, or designed to cause real-world harm. If you're creating lists in good faith, you have nothing to worry about.
