Community Guidelines

Last updated: 14 June 2026

Welcome to the Snusfri community. This is a space for people working to quit snus, nicotine pouches, cigarettes, or alcohol — and to support one another along the way. Recovery is hard, and no one should have to do it alone. These guidelines exist to keep this a safe, kind, and encouraging place for everyone.

By posting, commenting, reacting, or sharing in the Snusfri community, you agree to follow these guidelines. They apply to everything you share with other members.

Be kind and supportive

This community works best when we look out for one another. Please:

• Be encouraging. Cheer people on. A streak of one day deserves the same warmth as a streak of one year.
• Be respectful. Disagree gently. We all come from different backgrounds, countries, and situations.
• Share honestly, not perfectly. Setbacks are part of recovery. It's okay to talk about cravings, slip-ups, and difficult moments.
• Lift others up. If you see someone having a hard day, a few kind words can mean a lot.
• Keep advice friendly, not preachy. Share what worked for you, but remember everyone's path is their own.

Snusfri is a peer-support and motivation app. It is not medical treatment or professional advice. Nothing shared in the community should replace guidance from a qualified health professional.

What is not allowed

To keep this space safe, the following are not permitted anywhere in the Snusfri community. Content that breaks these rules may be removed, and accounts that break them may be suspended or banned.

• Harassment and bullying. No targeting, intimidating, demeaning, or repeatedly bothering another member.
• Hate and discrimination. No attacks or slurs based on race, ethnicity, nationality, religion, gender, sexual orientation, disability, age, or any other protected characteristic.
• Threats and violence. No threats of harm toward anyone, and no encouraging others to harm people.
• Spam and self-promotion. No repetitive, off-topic, or junk content.
• Advertising and selling. No promoting, advertising, or selling products or services — and absolutely no selling, promoting, or sourcing of nicotine, tobacco, alcohol, or other addictive substances.
• Sharing others' personal information. No posting anyone's real name, address, phone number, photos, or other private details without their clear consent.
• Graphic or harmful content. No sexually explicit material, gratuitously violent or disturbing imagery, or other content unsuitable for a recovery space.
• Glorifying relapse. No content that encourages, romanticizes, or pressures others to start using again. Talking honestly about a slip-up to seek support is welcome; cheering relapse on is not.
• Encouraging self-harm. No content that promotes, encourages, or provides instructions for self-harm, suicide, or harm to others.
• Illegal content. Nothing unlawful, and no encouraging others to break the law.
• Impersonation and deception. No pretending to be someone else or misleading the community.

Respect everyone's anonymity

Snusfri is built around pseudonymous usernames — chosen handles, not real names. Many members value the privacy this gives them. Please protect it:

• Don't try to uncover, guess at, or reveal another member's real-world identity.
• Don't share screenshots, photos, or details that could expose who someone is.
• Be thoughtful about your own privacy too — only share what you're comfortable making visible to other signed-in members.

How moderation works

We rely on the community to help keep this space healthy, and we give you tools to do that.

Report objectionable content

If you see a post, comment, or image that breaks these guidelines, please report it. Reporting is quick and helps us act on problems faster.

Block other users

You can block any member at any time. Once blocked, you won't see their content and they won't be able to interact with you.

Automatic hiding

Content that is reported by multiple members is automatically hidden from the community while it is reviewed. This helps remove harmful content quickly, even before a person looks at it.

We do not tolerate abusive content or abusive users. Reports are taken seriously, and we aim to handle them promptly and fairly.

Consequences

When these guidelines are broken, the Snusfri team may take one or more of the following actions, depending on how serious or repeated the behavior is:

• Content removal — the offending post, comment, or image is taken down.
• Warnings — a reminder of the guidelines and a chance to put things right.
• Suspension — temporary loss of access to community features.
• Permanent ban — removal from the community for serious or repeated violations.

Serious violations — such as threats, hate, sharing others' private information, or content encouraging self-harm — may result in an immediate ban without warning.

Questions or concerns

If you have a question about these guidelines, want to appeal a moderation decision, or need to report something you can't report in the app, contact the Snusfri team at support@snusfri.app placeholder — replace with a real support address before launch.

We may update these Community Guidelines from time to time. When we make meaningful changes, we'll update the date at the top of this page.
