I basically use next door for recommendations it I also think it's good for neighborhood information, ie: Crime reports, items for sale, etc.
I enjoy the recommendation section and also the sale section. I do not like some of the inane posts about suspicious looking cars a d people. I am tired of reading about people should call the police for a car in the neighborhood. I am tired of people trying to be silly! I basically like Nextdoor.
I read most of the items on nextdoor, but when two or more people start complaining back and forth it's time they go on facebook of someother worthless social media and hash it out there. I thought this site was to enhance the neighborhood and yes to keep the streets informed of hurtful people. Some people need to upgrade their conversations. (only my point of view).
I enjoy the ability to be informed of happenings in the area. Good or bad, we need a way to communicate with each other. I would prefer fewer ads, but I guess they are necessary.
I love it. A great way to stay connected with network happenings be it garage sales, lost/found pets or crime watch.
I love this app because I not only am in the know with what is going on in my neighborhood but i have also been able to buy and sell some pretty great things.
I like reading the information that Nextdoor provides, because there's plenty of news going on on Our Community and the close cities.
I do like to read the posts on here. It sorta keeps me up to date on what's going on in the area, garage sales, items for sale and news events. My child is grown and out on his own in a different town now, so I wouldn't know about as many things now if it were not for Nextdoor.
With that said, I do wish when people post garage sales and such that when they are over, they would take their posts down.
Next door is easy to use and helpful when there is an urgent message to the community. The layout of information could be updated a bit. Also the search function could be updated, it's hard to find an old entry.
I learn a lot about ways to help solve problems. I love to see people on Nextdoor helping people with lost pets. I like the information our county representative gives us about issues concerning us and our neighborhoods.
I post a funny photo on Monday and Friday in hopes of bringing a laugh or a smile. Without the connectivity of Nextdoor it wouldn't be possible. I get wonderful feedback which makes me feel like I'm part of a big family of neighbors.
Very informative and keeps us up to date with everything going on locally. We use this service every day and have bought and sold many items in the past year. We also get many referrals off the site.
Overall, I feel ND offers a great opportunity for neighborhoods to connect with each other. It offers a wide variety of topics for people to share, who are genuinely interested in community, services, recommendations, and concerns in the area.
I don't know what you're talking about. What "experience"? How can I enter 100 characters when I don't know what this is all about. It appears to be mostly a site about lost dogs and cats.
Pretty good at first but the new format is not as interesting. I am a senior and really don't need many services or items but it was fun checking out what was available to others.
I have given away items, borrowed from neighbors, and received great recommendations. NEXTDOOR is a quick, effective way to communicate with neighbors.
Overall ND has provided useful, valid, and stellar information; it can also be crazy humorous. I have acquired unexpected treasures from neighbors, and exceptional, useful apps. And links. I have highly recommended countless people to ND. That is why I am also disappointed in the petty, vulgarness of some of the threads. (I hate to recommend tasteless trash to my friends and family.) Some of the negative interactions from neighbors can be down right shocking and nasty! Big time cussing, name calling, shaming and discriminatory targeting should be immediate account revocable offenses; even if under the mask of an auspicious cartoon or joke.
I love this site! So wonderful to be in contact with your neighbors and share important information with each other. It is very important to be in contact with your neighbors and to offer your knowledge and support when needed. I want to share my experience with businesses/services in the area to help them and appreciate their input in return. I just wish it were easier to categorize the services recommended rather than saving them to file.
I like Next Door, even though I don't use other social media. I especially value finding out about crimes in the surrounding area, about lost and found pets, and recommendations from others for handymen, plumbers, electricians, pool service, new restaurants and businesses, etc. It is very helpful.
Answer: The negative reviews are honest reactions to being duped into sharing too much personal information (that Nextdoor now owns and will NEVER delete and will continue to sell to advertisers until your dying day) to join a site that seems friendly on the surface, but which does NOTHING to protect users. I was bullied by a convicted murderer, who is a Lead in my neighborhood--and I was banned from the site for complaining. Leads are nothing more than early adopters of the site who have been assigned power over other users so that Nextdoor does not have to police it's own site. In short: No. The negative reviews are not wrong. Heed them! I wish I had known before it was too late!
Answer: Forget about nextdoor and leads. Get a life, a real one. Don't waste your time with toxic online communities that tend to get the worst out of people. My advise is run away while you still have some dignity left.
Answer: Kay is right. That is their policy. However, don't expect them to hold to it. We have leads unfairly removing only some people's comments and Nextdoor does nothing about it. Best bet, dump nextdoor.
Answer: Neighborhood. Rocks is in development. Another 6 months.
Answer: Truth is like oil and water. As long as the scam artist have enough venture capital (other people's money) they will continue to shake the bottle leaving it a murky view obscuring the truth. Run out of cash, they'll be exposed for the incompetent boobs they are and the top dogs will clear out their bank accounts and move on to the next scam. One look at their "leading edge tech" pulled right out of the 1980's is proof enough they will die in the tar pits just like the fellow dinosaurs. Want a state of the art app?

Answer: Dallas, SiteJabber rates it at 16%. It would surely rate lower if there weren't so many fake positive reviews. Folks review Nextdoor either 1 or 5. The fives read like ads about Nextdoor's features and potential. The ones are written by real people and give accounts of how awful their experiences were.
Answer: Several other reviewers on this site have had the same thing happen to them. We have been fully banned from nextdoor (beyond just "suspension"), but they keep our profiles, and sometimes our names still appear in the neighbor registry. They refuse to remove us fully, I suppose, in an attempt to misrepresent our endorsement and participation there. It's clearly unethical, but their TOS states that they can do this, as any nd apologist will point out.
Answer: Here's a tidy answer from corporate... Hi Colleen, Thanks for getting back to me. Our Community Guidelines prohibit posting about Lead activity on the main newsfeed. If your Leads are inactivate and youre concerned about moderation in your neighborhood, you should reach out directly to Nextdoor Support. If you have any specific concerns I can help you with at this time, please let me know. Best, Amanda Nextdoor However, the minute you alert corporate to issues with leads in your community you'll find your account terminated. They are very protective of the information surrounding who really is controlling the activities on the boards. Most people in my community are under the misguided impression that corporate is in control. They don't even consider it is their neighbor who sits in judgement.
Answer: Nextdoor wants your full legal name, house number and address and your email address that they link all together. As an added bonus... They have a little map that you can click on. That way if, OMG, you offend someone the little map leads them straight to your house. Run, do not walk, away from this site. No good comes from Nextdoor.
Answer: Your name and address will be known to everyone who uses the NextDoor application and website. I don't suggest using it. I recently discovered that low income apartments in ghetto areas might be able to use the application to do crime. Car theft, asaaults, kidnapping and just about everything else under the sun.
