To keep Meet5 a relaxed and neutral space for everyone, we have a few clear guidelines for spiritual and political activities.
Meet5 is a platform for leisure and making new friends. To help keep the atmosphere friendly and enjoyable for everyone, we do not allow political activism or manipulative content in the app.
Below, you can find out where we draw the line — and why.
1. Spiritual Activities
We welcome activities that are about personal exchange, relaxation, or shared mindfulness, as long as they remain private and non-binding. However, activities are not allowed if they are used for commercial recruitment, coaching, healing claims, or cult-like structures that create dependency.
The line is crossed when an attendance fee is charged for “healing,” someone presents themselves as an infallible “guru,” or pressure is placed on others to take part.
Examples:
Allowed | Not allowed |
Group meditation in the park | Paid healing sessions, including looking for companions to join them |
Talking about astrology or yoga | Predictions about the future, fortune-telling, or reincarnation sessions |
Forest bathing or mindfulness practice together | Selling products (stones, oils, etc.) or recruiting for coaching |
2. Political Activities
Casual conversations about social issues in a relaxed setting are fine. But activities used for active party promotion, organizing protests or demonstrations, or sharing unconstitutional, discriminatory, or extremist content are not allowed.
The line is crossed when a activity becomes mobilizing in nature, such as calling people to protest, or when it puts the safety and respect of our community at risk.
As a startup, we stay neutral by not allowing political activism of any kind on the platform, regardless of direction, so Meet5 can remain a politics-free safe space for leisure.
Examples:
Allowed | Not allowed |
A casual meetup to talk about current events | Calls to protest or meetups to make protest signs |
Attending a panel discussion | Party events or support for election campaigns |
Joining parades and festivals (for example, Pride) | Sharing conspiracy theories or exclusionary views |
3. What about charity and good deeds?
We distinguish between events with a social purpose based on their main focus:
Allowed: Shared activities like charity runs, cooking for homeless people, or picking up litter (plogging). In these cases, the shared activity is the main focus.
Not allowed: Vigils, protest marches, or petition drives. In these cases, the main purpose is making a political statement.
Why do these rules exist?
Political mobilization and spiritual offers with a commercial background often create dynamics that go beyond the scope of our community. Removing such activities is not meant to silence opinions — it’s simply to help make sure Meet5 remains a safe, relaxed space for everyone.

Tip: If you’re unsure whether your activity fits, just ask yourself: Is the shared experience and having fun the main focus? If yes, it’s usually a great fit for Meet5!
