I found Similar Worlds after "Yahoo! Answers" shut down. It's a much smaller community, so you get to know everyone well. It's a fun environment to hang out, chat, and laugh. There are some poor reviews on here, but no site is perfect. There's always going to be a few bad people, no matter where you go. It's good to have a sense of humor and not take anything or anyone too seriously.
The only redeeming feature of this online forum is the solid backbone of veterans from EP. Without their input and participation, SW would be nothing. Many refugees from EP have left. The admin(s) are of poor quality. Gangs of bullies travel this site causing mayhem and are allowed to cause trouble. The ongoing influx from other sites means a younger crowd who mostly is depressed and afraid and wanting attention with relationship problems. Quality postings are few. This site continues to deteriorate. It is like the lesser baby brother of a glorious star, EP. I spend time on SW only to see my friends and chat in pms with them. Limit your time here. You have a better life offline. Complaints are ignored. People are falsely accused of wrongdoings. Warnings are placed on profiles often incorrectly. That is all. PoetryNEmotion. 2024-01-04.
The site itself isnt the problem. Its the people on it. They are miserably dry, boring af, dont care anything about you and cant stand any kind of fun.
Like many websites, Similar Worlds can be a great experience with wonderful people, or it can be a playground for trolls. The admins are really dedicated to making it the former. Know that if you participate, you can completely block posts from deliberately offensive people, or you can have an email conversation with the admins about them.

Tip for consumers:
Keep your postings brief. Tell the truth. Be authentic. Offer support or advice. Be civil.
Let us face the fact that this site is so young and learning. The glory days of EP are long gone, but we remember well how wonderful they were. Many of the former EPERS found refuge on SW. Many familiar people gather there now. I cherish my inner circle. I have made some good new friends. The younger crowd comes and leaves regularly. Lots of fake people. I don't know why people cannot just be themselves. But that is the reality of online. People can pretend to the hearts content. There are some fine writers here and some fine poets too. And many ordinary, good people too. I think you get what you invest into SW. Be kind. Be real. Have fun. Watch out for trolls and negative people. That is about it.
Whoever said that those bad reviews of this cesspool are dishonest has no idea what they're talking about.
SimilarWorlds is absolute garbage. It is full of overly aggressive users and admins and mods who defend them at any cost. Before I left this horrible website I had several friends banned from there just because they got in arguments and fights with some of the admins's favorite users, who seem to constantly be in contact.
There's a huge mob mentality on this website... oh and a lot of diaper fetishes.

And insignificant. It's mostly a mecca for angry Trump minions and older men trying to groom young babes. The site works pretty good, but the quality of users is terribly lacking.
It used to be for members of experience project but the got kicked to the curb adms admin nuno and Andrew deleted and deactivated all there personal groups. They could care less what there members want and just do it there way. Many e pets have left. Many just leave after a few days. If u have autism u are picked on Dailey. Only reason I'm there is I have friends there. I wish someone would start a good social media site
You're only free to express there if you are a leftist. It's a crybaby woke site filled with child molesters and LGBTQ.
Tip for consumers:
Don't use it.
I had been on SW for 6 years and constantly harassed by a group of scammers that scammed me out of some money years earlier. They followed me there after my bank helped me get most of it back. They began ripping my account apart by deleting photos and my best stories. I've been hacked by them for years. When I finally decided to expose them to the community and administration * jumped on saying nothing was happening!? I was shocked and surprised by his hurtful comment. Earlier I had sent him names of these hackers, but he never responded. I hung in there for another year or so untill my account was ruined by them, so I at last left. You will also lose your counter views if you complain, they will all slow way down. The counter views should be eliminated because they pit users against each other, lots of jealousy over that feature. You also have to pay for blocking after a certain amount last I was there. I left almost a year ago after being bullied and data removed. I recommend going to sites where your data can't be removed, AND where you'll be treated with better respect than I was. I'm much happier since leaving.

Tip for consumers:
My review I just posted was about Similar Worlds social media website. Sorry I wasn't clear, I may have just wrote SW.
This site has NO standard of fairness or enforcement of moderation.
For example:
I received threats from a user over her many multiple accounts, and because she and her various cohorts are fairly popular...
When I grew tired of being harassed and reported it. Guess what.
Admin turned it around. Defended them. Ignored my evidence and promptly banned me. Without question.
Apparently she's someone's favorite daughter or girlfriend. When it's like that...
Decent users don't stand a chance.
SimilarWorlds, a recreation of the old site Experience Project, brings together just anyone from anywhere. I've never met such a cosmopolitan group of users with people from all walks of life, political viewpoints, and parts of the world. It can be a weird place to get into but so many users are amazing people.
SW also has amazing community and administrator policing of exploitative content. The problem exists as it does on all social media, but people really band together to stop bad actors from hurting people. I've been there for years and hope it lasts for so much longer.
This is an amazing site where you can give or receive support as well as make posts, comment on those posts or share private messages. You can happily surf the site too. It's under constant development and whilst not perfect so many here would miss it deeply.
Like the real world and the internet in general there are strange or obnoxious people but also decent and caring people.
I've had fun here but it's now a dead website, find somewhere else.
It's always been semi toxic now it's boring as well
Tip for consumers:
Avoid avoid avoid
Don't be surprised if you find this site to be an unfamiliar world to you if you're normal.
You will like it if you like shallow conversation discussing your latest mental state. Depression is an often high point of discussion. Sexual perversions get good responses. Naked boobies pics are a highlight on Tuesdays.
If you like sitting at a bar drowning your sorrows away you'll have multiple chances for shallow conversations with the sad sacks sitting with you.
If you choose to open up and expand a conversation with a person from another country you'll probably be cut down openly by a wanna be expert that sits proudly amongst their participation trophy's from the high school debate team.
Low membership #'s will leave you talking with the same group of board house wives if you're into that.
It's the only site of it's kind really. But it is no Experience Project. It's been in decline for while. Admin are great, no complaint there. The problems are user base.
Where to start -
Older or middle aged adults who act like they never left middle school. Some kindergarten. The arguments, accusations, name calling and dramatic over sharing to name a few. Tiny mole hills made into mountains of drama. Who did what and when, who blocked or bullied or stalked and on and on. How do they even handle REAL life crisis? Victim mentality is high. But you never hear the other side of it.
Then the other extreme is toxic positivity or a few, who go around with over sweet flattery and "kindness" like a passive aggressive narcissist trying hard to be liked, lolz. It oozes fake. Then the prima donnas - with the "I deserve" mentality.
Then there are the sex starved where the minds are stuck in a deep rut of titties or other body parts. Objectification of women is extreme. So boring.
Mental and emotional illness is at an all time high.
Sure there are few decent peeps and some writers keep the place attractive. But many are leaving. If there were more mature users and substance the site could be really good! Don't know how to get them there.
Informal, friendly banter. There lots of different topics to discuss.
No matter where you live around the globe. You can join in day or night.
I have enjoyed interacting on this website. The friendly staff has made it quite easy to connect with others who share samiliar stories.
Its a cool place to talk about various topics, give advice, ask for advice, express funny thoughts or deeper issues. Being anonymous it can attract some very weird people but on the click of a button you can easily never see again whoever you don't want to see anymore. Without the block button you might run into some really weird posts and weird opinions. With a proper use of the block button you can exchange and chat with a bunch of polite, decent people.
This app seems to work alright but it has a tendency to crash when posting a story or comment. Otherwise it's easy to use and fun
It's the only social media I like using. I started here aged 13 and now I'm 20. People open their hearts here. They are family. Not nice people join but Similar Worlds sorts them out very quickly. You only have to send a message to the organizers. They want to keep this site family friendly. They seem to be there 24/7 ready to leap in to protect you.
I have a suggestion for Similar Worlds: How about allowing posters to lock their posts from comments?
Some posters are abusive, and this would allow their targets to stop them.
When I got a warning I didn't know why. They didn't tell me what it was for. There was a warning on my profile for everyone to see. I e-mailed and asked why, and no one replied. I didn't break the rules, so I was confused.
Lovely website that makes a difference!
I do really enjoy Similar Worlds,
I've made a lot of great friends there.
There are lots of kind, interesting people on this site,
But yes, a number of trolls as well.
The Admins do seem to handle them fast enough though.
It looks like most of those bad users who got permanently banned. Cam over here to leave fake reviews about similar worlds!
While there was once a sense of hope, that SW would evolve, sadly, it has followed the demise of its predecessors.
Writers have abandoned the site enmasse, leaving the feed with just sadness and occasional dramas.
The site abandoned efforts to preserve the individuality of members. This included eliminating the EP inspired features that use to support many with depression and mental health issues.
Currently it appears to be downsizing to something akin to an aimless social blog.
It has some interesting design aspects and lots of troublesome content.
While originally habit forming, the designer has drifted the site towards a highly locked down european centric paradigm, lacking an essence of the american experience.
This leads to a high turnover of new members and alienation of existing members.
Membership growth appears stalled, with an obvious long-term trend to less serious writing and reduced interaction.
Wall Street should eye this venture cautiously.
New members should dabble, test it and follow their interest.
If you are seeking friendships, romance, humor, alternative points of view and discussion... this is not the place.
Recent design changes have made the site lame.
Overall, I recommend avoiding it altogether.
Tip for consumers:
Site is good for people to test. Just not what it was advettised as.
I enjoy interacting with others on this site. You get to meet and chat with lots of friendly people who share similar ideas as you do.
Relate, Share and Bond with others who experience Similar Worlds to you.
