I actually stood up to a bully on nextdoor. The guy started pming me 6 pm's in a row and demanding I reply back. He reported one of my post as "harassment".

I wrote nextdoor that I wanted him blocked. I haven't received any pm's since then. Not sure what they did. He knows where I live.

From now on, I'll just mute the blow hards.

I post my concerns and a lot of people commenting but unfortunately the post removed without any notice. No professionalism to let consumer the problem need to be edited or whatever has to let us know first so we have any clue regarding the problem or our mistakes in posting.

I'm going to relate my personal experience. I'm not saying that these events will happen to everyone, but they definitely happened to me.

Approximately one week ago, I posted on Next Door in response to someone else's posting. In my response, I quoted some health statistics I found on the web. I included my source, as I wanted to be clear about where I had gotten my information.

My post was taken down subsequently. No explanation, no advance warning, nothing.

I then posted a polite request asking the admins to please explain when they remove someone's post. Many users agreed with me.

Subsequently, my second post (requesting an explanation) was removed. Again, no explanation, no warning, not even a courteous reminder.

Use Next Door at your own risk.

Really the worst site on the internet. Claims that they only allow users to use real names, but then deactivates based on spite reports because another user disagrees with something you wrote. Deactivates based on zero proof that not using real name, after going through lengthy process of jumping through hoops to join site with real name. Why deactivate instead of asking for proof like picture ID? Customer service is incredible bad, takes weeks. Attracts the worst kind of people who are very smarmy

My introduction to this organization is an overzealous lead administrator (possibly of the national site?) taking measures against someone on Facebook trying to get accounts disabled because someone who is joining their Nextdoor Neighborhood used the name of their dog. Now she's trying to get the person's Facebook accounts that she assumes are pets deleted instead of simply excluding the dog's account from her neighborhood group. She doesn't seem to even have proof that the accounts are dogs, just that the names don't match and the profile pic is a dog. Her posts about her repeated failed attempts to get the Facebook accounts deleted sound very vindictive. This organization sounds like it is run like a Junior High popularity club.

Invasion of privacy
February 8, 2017

I enjoyed Streetlife but Nextdoor is on another level. On having a look round the site I found I could identify where all the people in my village lived and their exact addresses. If anyone wants to trace you it is easy for them... and this may not always be welcome. There are other ways to find out what is going on locally. Also why should I let Nextdoor know all my Facebook and other contacts. (I opted out but it's still not nice to be constantly asked). Leave well alone.

Censorship at its best
February 25, 2022

Was banned the first time for commenting about homeless people leaving trash at their camps. Was warned in an email by a company employee that I should not have allowed a post referring to "illegal aliens". (I am a community moderator). "Illegal alien" is literally the legal definition according to our own country. I was banned again for linking to a Sonoma County official website to Covid data and asking about the difference between California cases and Florida cases. Apparently, even with official data and proof, they do not want any dissent on their misinformation campaign about Covid. I am done. Account deleted.

I have used Blanca's Cleaning Service for over two years now and am very pleased with her cleaning my house and doing various other jobs as needed. Blanca is very professional and a pleasure to have around.
I highly recommend anyone to use her services as she will do a very good job of cleaning for you. Mrs. Joan Moore

If you like nastry, drag-out arguments over conspiracy theories and personal beliefs, this is the place for you! Moderators routinely allow harassment towards members they do not like and in fact will participate in those attacks on the forum. Try getting Nextdoor to step in and address these moderators. Never gonna happen. Nextdoor is full of alt-right crazies who love to bicker and harass each other. A frigging free-for-all. Facebook is a better choice.

Don't bother
September 30, 2021

Only like minds are allowed in the bubble. Don't you dare bother to think for yourself or you will not be welcome here.

Somehow I posted misinformation although I have never posted about COVID-19, National elections, nor vaccines.

So I joined a little over a month ago and I was forced to put my address and name on the website and within 48 hrs my cars and home were vandalized and broken into. This company is like the Titanic and after making a complaint to their online website for they don't have a telephone customer service representatives. I received no response. This company is going to be a penny stock and compromises people's safety and families privacy. I am going to the Media about this for I have not heard back from their help department to solve the issue. They could be seeking a class action lawsuit for they sell your information to third party companies. Do not join this website the people seem nice yet they said that about Ted Bundy.

Useful
July 18, 2019

Nextdoor has been very helpful to me. Sometimes I don't get why posts are deleted as inappropriate when others that get on the podium are left. There seems to be no consistency but other than that I think it is great and very helpful.

DON'T USE THIS APP!
October 30, 2020

Lately people have posted that their political signs were taken. I always said what a shame. Then of course, people express their views. I would never insult anyone. I do have views, and because they lean right, I was kicked off the site (I'm guessing) because of those views. No one ever got in touch to say why. I only found out by trying to get on and couldn't. Have deleted the app. DON'T USE IT.

Good for Local Informational
May 17, 2019

I am relatively new to the area and have been able to get recommendations on various services for my home. I try to pass on recommendations as well, many of them I found on Home Advisor. Before January 2018, I lived in Prior Lake, MN. The Nextdoor members in that area were much more active and communicative. I was disappointed when I moved to Leominster because it doesn't seem like members around here make good use of the site.

When I went through the sign up process, they wanted permission to access my contact list. Of course I refused. The only way they can pay for their servers, infrastructure, and employees is by either selling ads or by selling user information. My bet is on information.

Nice but needs help
October 4, 2016

Ok. Loved it for a little while. Buttt. Many shortcomings. Mainly it is not monitored or maintained. This classifieds live forever. Impossible to contact posters. Just very weak software. But it serves a purpose.

Disappointed
January 25, 2020

Mostly a soap box with people complaining. My disappointment is that they are discriminatory. If one person is self promoting their craft/ they will remove post and possibly disable access to using the app altogether but yet you WILL find others posting similiar things that they have made or looking for commissions and their posts even after they've been reported the posts remain. If they have a guideline this needs to be adhered to by everyone and enforced. Discriminatory business practice

Nextdoor is a joke. It is mainly used for whiny people to vent their illogical daily rants or to sell something. I originally joined this website at it's beginning for the purpose of being aware of my community. What a disappointment in the website and the community. Moderators are brainless and prejudice. They will moderate somethings and not others regarding the same issues. This is NOT a free speech website! I became so tired of all the whining and complaining that I discontinued use of this terrible website.

Censuring
November 15, 2020

My problem with Nextdoor is the Admins have way to much power. They suspend posts, punish people they don't like regardless of content bbn of the post. They gang up and censure for no apparent reason, and I don't usually get an email explaining what was offensive. I never put anyone down or use profanity. Most of my post inform. One was taken down because I copied a sex registry list so people in our community would know. I was told I was shaming them. What The Heck.
