Nextdoor

NextDoor has gone from helpful to a liberal cesspool of nothing but arguing and bullying. It's not neighborly at all. I tried deleting my account once I got sick of it and was told that it was suspended in the past (I don't even remember it being suspended) and that they couldn't delete it to "protect their platform." Last I checked, I lived in the US. If you want to not allow ME to delete MY personal account, move your headquarters to China. I'll fight this until they do not have my data any longer.

I created two seperate accounts for seperate residences in Australia (one in Sydney, another in the Central Coast region). This is allowed according to the Nextdoor policies if you have two residences as long as there is seperate accounts for both. I however got wrongly banned for having duplicate accounts. Even their banned message says there is one account per residence. I have appealed this aith the Nextdoor staff and screenshot their policies, but Nextdoor staff are tone deaf. I also attached the banned message and policy to this review. I don't recommend this website.

Copies of all the harassment, should be sent, also start asking for all the private information from the support of Next-Door when they contact you. There are no last names. I had been back on, back off, back on, back off. I had been approved by a Manager and now another Manager is asking for information again outside of Next-door policies. They ignore they own policies. What good if you are vouched, verified and approved. They make you go through the whole hoops again. They are doing switch and bait. Everyone needs to contact Sarah of Next-door. There are other places you can directly contact her and send her the information, it is time changes should be made.

We have neighborhood leads who are also the homeowners association board. Any criticism of actions by the board are deleted, and the posters are censored or temporarily banned, even though there is no violation of TOS.
Complaints about this to Nextdoor, were disregarded, and the reported leads retaliated against those who reported them, by censoring and banning them. We are currently identifying other apps which are similar to Nextdoor, and preparing to migrate.

I was constantly being banned. My account would be disabled when I would report bullies who were weaponizing the report feature. And they would remove my content. I'm a photographer. They would remove my photos of sunsets and art! And child molesters use the app. Stay away from this App!

Avoid Nextdoor if you value your privacy.

BTW, they also censure conservative free speech, which used to be a concern for the traditional Left. Evidently, the Bill of Rights no longer applies to the new, radical Alt-Left. Anyway, even if you did go to college in the last 8-10 years and have brainwashed into digging Bernie, AOC, Marx, Lenin, and Stalin, you still might care about Internet security and your own identity. If so, avoid Nextdoor.

I could never get the local information from any other source if it weren't for Nextdoor. I have found an excellent TV repairman, a great computer guy and many others. The fact that recommendations come from actual users of these professionals is very reassuring. I also have learned so much info about wild animals and birds of prey in the area that I have changed some of my habits with my own dog. Nice to know if there are unsavory characters in the area so I can keep my head on a swivel. I could go on. There are so many benefits to Nextdoor that I could go on forever. Great site!

I like being able to chat with my neighbors quickly and easily. I feel much more aware of what is happening in my neighborhood.

However, I am trying to offer free services to my neighborhood, and I feel very restricted in how Nextdoor allows me to notify my neighbors. I can only post in the finds section or "make a local deal", which creates a post in the local deals section. I don't think these sections are viewed nearly as often as the general or recommendations sections. It is disappointing that many neighbors will not know about my free services, which are a way for me to give back to my community.

Yes, everyone is right.
The leads are your HOA board members. They are trying to control the narrative that they can't in Facebook. If you don't have an HOA, then those who are the busy bodies, now control your neighborhoods discussions. There is no fairness, really. It is all about who you actually know, or to have complimenting & disgusting political & "moral" beliefs with.
I originally found it, used my facebook to login. Verified.
Moved. They sent me a postcard, to my new address. Verified.
Now someome reports my account as a fake name.
No due diligence. No effort.
A bland email that says I have to prove my identity, without saying how.
Hilarious & you definitely find out who you have to defend your very existence against.

Pretty much, facebook is too liberal & there is not enough control. Enter nextdoor.com.

I am so frustrated with this app. It is impossible to cancel sell for good or any other settings. I had sell for good set and I want to cancel it and I cannot find any menu that allows you to do that. The menus take you around in circles. Their political leaning and bias seep into their everyday interactions with members. Typical Bay Area intolerant leftist culture that gets you banned because some or other wokel had their feelings hurt. They need to cater to all.
