Nextdoor

Our community is in the process of a recall of two trustees. ND admins are interfering with the process because they are friends with the people being recalled. They take down pro recall posts that have not broken any rules, suspended pro recall accounts and promoted misinformation. It's been reported to ND and they have done absolutley nothing.

I have been a member of Nextdoor for about 5 years. I can assure you that while they claim politics posts aren't allowed, if they support the narrative of the left, no problem. I created a group on the site of conservatives (which was private) and that group of 400 was removed without warning or good explanation from Nextdoor. In the past I have been temporarily tossed about 5 times for innocuous posts that go against the progressive narrative, and I have also been temporarily tossed for using the wrong address, and using the wrong name. Even though I have always used my correct name and have lived in the same neighborhood for a decade. My posts there are as cordial as this review. Most moderators who are picked are heavily left. This site is a Socialist echo chamber. The Internet wasn't supposed to be this way. That's a real shame.

I think it is a great tool for a lot of people. I do feel a lot of people abuse the sure and only use it to complain, all for someone for free, or to be a bully to someone. This is the 2nd town I've been on nextdoor with. This town is horrible on Nextdoor compared to where I came from. I think it needs some clear guidelines set.

1/4 is jackwads complaining about anything and everything, 1/4 is lost pets and what is the animal insect of the day, 1/4 is thefts in the area and 1/4 might be slightly helpful and/or interesting... Junk overall... Unless you want to weed through the junk.

Nextdoor discriminates... I put up a post announcing a Carnival at a local Chick fil A Restaurant... they were offering complimentary sno cones, games, crafts, community booths and milk a cow. I live in the inner city of St. Louis, Mo and this (I thought) would be a great opportunity for parents to take their kids... so I posted the announcement... I immediately started receiving derogatory replies from members of the LGBT Community and my post was flagged and removed. I reposted x2 more times. Then the Lead LGBT member complained to the Nextdoor Staff and they supported the removal of the post. The LGBT Community took offense at the post because it was Chick fil A and Nextdoor agreed they had the right to have the post taken down. Nextdoor is not good for the neighborhood... they support discrimination and I can no longer be an active member of their site.

I had posted an incident of road rage. I was able to take a photo of the car and license plate. It was removed in less than five minutes. Someone else posted a road rage. It wasn't removed. I think that the car I took a photo of belonged to one of the leads, or family or kids or friends. It's supposed to be informative but even one of the leads doesn't live in the neighborhood, doesn't have a home in the neighborhood. Actually she lives out of the country! These leads are a bunch of step ford wives that are just bored and love have the power of a sometimes informative website.

I got banned years ago when a neighbor called my kids a liar when they were attacked by a dog. A witness driving by stopped and saved them. The police were involved the dog was put down. She said there was no way those dogs would do that. Guess the courts disagreed. The dog ran off the property and attacked on the sidewalk while they were walking to school. I called the defaming lady out on Nextpoor and within a day Nextdoor banned me permanently. So yeah Nextdoor is ridiculious.

I unsubscribed from notifications, not even joking, 5 times. Finally got fed up and logged in to turn them off again and I found FORTY ONE individual notification setting I had to manually turn off. The incessant chirping from this app lives on in my nightmares :D for the love of god, whoever thought that this is an acceptable marketing tactic lacks empathy full stop.

A whole gamut people expressing racist attacks, complaints that nobody can do anything about (eg, strangers in the neighborhood), but also sharing of services, giveaways, things that might be useful. Not that often that I see things that make me feel better about my area, or that seem likely to help me or my neighbors. But a recent thread I started gave me a good feeling about my neighbors & specifically those who took the time to LIKE or REPLY.

If you report a lead for abuse, they tell the lead you reported them, which sets you up for more abuse.
Our Leads are HOA board members who are being questioned about various issues such as $50k missing, hundreds of thousands of dollars in no-bid contracts being awarded, etc. Several of us who have referenced the issues and asked questions have been singled out for retaliation, slander, etc. leads/HOA board members have — without explanation or saying a word — arbitrarily and capriciously deleted users' posts to dishonestly manipulate a narrative. Several community members have been suspended without having violated Nextdoor TOS, when in fact it is the Nextdoor Leads and community reviewers (former board members and relatives) who are violating TOS. RUN, do not walk, from this toxic site

Everything went great from beginning to end. Boyko communicated well with reserving our party. When I arrived on the date of the event, the front staff were very helpful with making sure my decoration where brought in. Our waiters were awesome. Michele was AMAZING, very attentive and pleasant. We NEVER had to look for help. The food was GREAT ( thanks chefs). You MUST try the lamb chops. Atmosphere was just was perfect. Thank you EVERYONE soooo much for making our class 25th yr X-mas event a success.

So Streetlife sold out to Nextdoor and as a result have misused our personal data by breaching the UK DPA on many counts. I would urge anyone who finds themselves on Nextdoor to deactivate/unsubscribe as Nextdoor's only real motivation is marketing by sharing unauthorised data. On this basis I would also not trust their ability to keep your data secure, so if you happen to use a common password now might be a good idea to change it, at least on Nextdoor's web site

Very disappointed in the site because:
A. There was no group for our subdivision so THEY assigned me to people I don't know and don't live in my immediate area.
B. There is zero online live customer service. I had to write a letter to their HQ to be removed.
C. My name and address were displayed to those people that THEY assigned me to. There was no way for me to opt out of that neighborhood, it did allow me to remove other neighborhoods but always left me in a neighborhood where I knew no one and there was no way to opt out of that. As a single woman, I don't want strangers to know where I live, who lives there, etc.

Have you noticed that there is no ability to review it on Google? Humm, I wonder if that was planned?

I was on Nextdoor for a long time, then I made the mistake of speaking up about a petition someone was trying to get people to sign. He was spreading false information regarding the issue the petition was for and so I spoke up and gave him facts.
The people who didnt agree with me reported me as allegedly not using my real name. So next door kicked me off.
Did they think I was not using my real name because they were trying to come find me? Were they just being jerks and tried to silence me?
Either way... nextdoor just shut me down and now I have no voice. I was being civil and staying in the guidelines of the site, but nextdoor just let them have the last word by believing their claim. Now they want me to jump thru a bunch of hoops to get back on.
Screw that!
DO NOT SIGN UP FOR SITES THAT DO THIS!
Now, not only am I not able to use this resource, but I fear for my safety!
