Community Principles | CRÜ
CRÜ is an Australian queer social app. We’re starting in Brisbane, but we’re building it for queer people across Australia.
These are the values we want the community to carry. They are not legal or enforceable rules. The Community Guidelines set the conduct rules, and the Terms govern use of CRÜ.
You do not have to be loud to belong
You do not need to post often or compete for attention. Reading, taking your time and replying when you actually have something to say are all valid ways to use CRÜ.
No one is owed attention
Replies, follows and messages are choices. Silence is not a debt, and seeing someone on the app does not mean they owe you access to them.
Connection should stay mutual
Invite rather than push. If something does not feel mutual, it is okay to step back. A clear boundary should be respected straight away.
People are more than their posts
What someone shares is one moment, not their whole story. You can disagree with an idea without reducing a person to it. Leave room for context, uncertainty and change.
Calm is a feature
CRÜ is not trying to make every interaction urgent or competitive. Relevance can help you find useful conversations without turning popularity into a public score.
Privacy matters
Queer community information can be sensitive. Share what feels right for you, do not expose someone else’s private information, and respect the boundaries people set around themselves.
Moderation protects the space
Moderation is there to protect consent, privacy and safety, not to decide who won an ordinary disagreement. The enforceable rules are in the Community Guidelines & Safety Rules.
Remember there is a person on the other side
Behind every profile, post, message, Happening interest and pause is another person making their own choices. Treat them, and the shared space, with care.
The app will change. These ideas should not.
CRÜ will keep evolving, but context, boundaries and human connection should matter more than performance. These Principles describe that intent. They do not replace the Terms, Community Guidelines or Privacy Policy.
