BEWARE OF SCAMMERS
December 10, 2024

Since no one was told in advance that this would occur, a corporation that forbids payouts is flagrantly dishonest. They refused to let me access my account or take out any money, even though I earned some money and deposited everything I had ever saved. I had to hire S I M O N C H*C O M for assistance, and they were quite helpful; a few days after I hired them, I got my money back.

Unsatisfied
October 13, 2024

"Account banned". After longer time i've logged again to my Minds.com profile and what i see? "ACCOUNT BANNED". They even didn't informed me by e-mail about account banning/deleting, with reason or something. Nothing! So you can build your profile or pages for even few years and then they just delete your content / your work, just becouse they want so. It's same sh*t like facebook! No respect for people's work or time, here!

Can't even get logged in
November 11, 2022

I set up the account, logged in with the same username and password that I created two seconds earlier, and kept getting an error message "Sorry there was an error, please try again." I tried to log in 5 times on 2 different browsers and I'm 0/5. I haven't even been able to log in yet. Way to make a first impression.

Absolutely no support but they will take your money for "pro" features real quick.
They don't respond to support tickets.
They go on competing sites like GETTR and talk bad about the platform to try and leech users.
The site is buggy like if you mistype your email address during registration there's no way to change it and your username is lost forever even if you delete your account.
Painful, terrible user experience.

I used an Android phone and I read all the reviews and the pros and cons and decided to download the app through the Google download function. I did everything as asked and when I wanted to search for channels, nothing happened. I clicked on the corresponding search area then I typed "space and technology." Nothing at all downloaded. Unfortunately, nothing came up. I then tried to look for channels and nothing came up again. Very puzzling and disappointing. All I could see were messages directly from the administration of Minds about how to use the app, but nothing else. Every time I tried to search for something/anything at all it would give me the same strange message about "App cannot search for content" or something (A quite disconcerting message for all the buzz Minds has created). So, after opening an account, I was there less than 10 minutes. I really wanted to give it a try as I had read that it could work for someone like me (a totally unaffiliated centrist) but there are perhaps too many glitches/bugs at least on the OR for the Android customer. Too bad.

So disappointing!
July 8, 2021

For a site that had so much potential just 3 years ago it sure has sold it's soul quickly! From a site where everyone was treated equally to a "Caste System" that requires members to Pay for a Plus Membership if the want their Interactions, Comments and Thumbs-Ups to count for anything. You cannot even Block Boosted Posts that you may find Offensive or Rude unless you PAY for that Privilage! Not nearly the Site that It Once Claimed to Be! Very Sad. Oh well, back to WorldTruth. Online for Me! Tell them that HempDog sent Ya!

I made an account. I DID NOTHING. I had zero activity on the platform. I subscribed to few channels, but I posted nothing and commented on nothing.
Suddenly I was banned, and no appeal possible. I was not even notified about the ban. Only the homepage flashed the info for a fraction of a second before reseting to the login page "banned for spamming". I had to capture the page to read the message.
I was not able to do anything about it, and there is nobody to contact.
The email address is a black hole. Never came back anything from it.
Complain about restrictions is possible AFTER LOGIN. But that is not possible anymore, because the account is banned.
I can not even delete it. I totally lost control of it, including the username, and MINDS don't give a crap.
Literally the worst censorship I have ever encountered.

Great social media if you want to stop giving your data to big tech (Fb, Twitter, YT)
There's no auto ban and you can find very nice people

Minds is different from other outlets. It doesn't discriminate against different political views, so it's not an echo chamber. Other social media outlets feel like a coliseum in which users duke it out for attention and a dopamine reward. Minds is more like friends sitting around a campfire passing the Dopamine blunt back and forth.

Some restrictions in place, especially if you like to post some nuddies, but in my 4 years on the platform I've been pretty pleased. The Admins have been fairly responsive, groups feature is great, and the friends you'll make... just try not to be a toxic keyboard warrior and you'll be fine.

Dont be fooled
March 16, 2021

Free speech sometimes means you may see something offensive. Youse your mind, don't react to emotion. Great site, check it out.

Great App
March 16, 2021

Great social platform, without the toxicity of twitter. Dont down load from Google play or the Apple store or you will be locked out of comments. Download the APK direct from the site.

No Boot yet!

Considering I was booted off both Twitter and fb for saying the virus isn't smart enough to know what time covid comes out or that the virus seems to latch of to conservative protesters over blm and antifa

I'm serious. If you feel like your art has been given up on or that you will never get anywhere with it (maybe friends say you're really great at art just to post it online ans get no reaponse) please come to MINDS. The max following I ever had was maybe 10-11 followers. I tried Instagram, tumblr, Facebook, Facebook, even Twitter. And nothing worked. I am fast approaching to 400 subs on MINDS and it has fully given me and my friends faith in our art again. Please give it a shot.

I've tried to get into Minds on a few different occasions over the past four or five years. I understand the need for social media platforms that aren't twitter and facebook, and I really hoped that this site would be a viable alternative to those two places. It's not, really. Like just about every other "free speech" oriented social media site, it's just become a haven for dumb conservatives. However, it's not as bad as Parler, voat, Gab, and $#*!ute. I do think that it could be an enjoyable place if there was a diversity of opinions, but that doesn't seem to be in the cards. Never say never, I guess, but until then, I hope you like unfounded nonsense and political reaction. Also, the jokes aren't funny.

You can alao boost your post by using the tokens you've earned with the click of a button. Overall friendly atmosphere. Highly recommend checking it out!

Facebook abuses free speech daily and exploits users by selling their info. Minds pays you for sharing

Integrity
March 15, 2021

Integrity. That is what Minds have to offer. This is wrapped in a conjunction of elements: free speech, user privacy and open source.
