I was just booted off Next Door, for daring to mention the holy grail of the medical community - vaccines. I was reviewing a veterinary hospital in Fayetteville NY, that kicked me out of their practice for declining their medications for my dog. The 'doctor' very rudely asked 'SO WHAT DID YOU COME HERE FOR?" I answered quietly - 'An exam'. What's wrong with going to a vet, for their professional exams, their worm tests and blood tests, (all of which are expensive enough) but declining their useless - sometimes dangerous - medications? (I know 4 dogs and 1 cat that DIED from Bravecto -A drug promoted by this animal 'hospital'). They took my money for the exam, but when she figured out that I was not there to buy their drugs, the 'doctor' STORMED out of the exam room, and never did an actual exam. (Later when I requested a refund for the exam that never happened, I was refused - demonstrating once again what Fayetteville Animal Hospital actually cares about, and it isn't your pet)
SO I did the neighborly thing, and posted a review on NEXT DOOR, which was 'REMOVED' for 'illegal information'. (Adults are not allowed to weigh all the data you know; we're incapable in this new tyranny that used to be the Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave).
After I posted a copy of the 'removal', I was summarily suspended from NEXT DOOR - your local commie outfit that permits only cute puppy pictures, for sale items, and cat adoptions. But nothing of 'gravitas'. So here it is! My negative review of both Fayetteville Animal Hospital, AND Next door AND YELP! The pay for good reviews fake review platform that if you give them the $$$ will hide negative reviews under a cloud called 'Not recommended'. (Which when I visited that page, I discovered OTHER disillusioned former patrons of Fayetteville Animal Hosptial, one gal who actually referred to the doctor 'Kevorkian'..
The moderators in any local area of Nextdoor just take down whatever they want. It doesn't matter what the guidelines are. The people working as moderators for next door are idiots. Their own personal preferences and ideologies enter into their editing of the website. It's a bunch of Karens that moderate these things. Absolutely ridiculous and unless this company gets bought I don't see how they survive. Who wants to advertise on Nextdoor? You'd have to be a complete moron. I had posted a couple political things and they hid them. So I wouldn't post any more but they just suspended my account over the posts that they already hid. If the posts are already hidden what am I supposed to do- delete them anyway? They've already been hidden so no one can see them. If no one can see them what's the point of suspending my account for 3 days? Unbelievable stupidity runs rampant through the moderators of Nextdoor. It's Karen Central.
This is a publicly traded company that currently has the stock valuation of $1.92 per share. The local administrators decide what gets posted and what gets hidden and they are complete idiots. I doubt that the local administrators on next door are vetted very well. I tried a few times to reactivate my account but they keep blocking local stories that they say are not local. It's more of a waste of time than Facebook. You're better off going to Craigslist. What a waste of the internet.
My local Nextdoor group (Salem, Massachusetts) is truly revolting. It is dominated by passive aggressive Karens and bullies pushing a political agenda. Any differing opinion is attacked and even the most pleasantly worded differing opinion is taken down as "Unkind and Uncivil. The local "Review Team" is EXTREMELY biased. I repeatedly have to reach out directly to Nextdoor support to address the issue...sometimes they do...most times they don.t. Truly revolting platform with despicable stalkers.
Soooo you have irresponsible pet owners losing their pets, people complaining about street trash, homeless or someone with a jacket if its too hot. Nothing but, old many racist folks who can't navigate FB or IG so Nextdoor it is. I saw a post about a guy saying he's going to go "talk to some homeless people" and I called him a bully. Sounds like bullying when you can call the law. The other seniors reported my comment but, not his. So my response was fitting because bullies support bullies.
Censoring, liberal, woke ideology is promoted. You almost forget you are in america...but if trump wins...we can sue the medias that do that...
...This is worse than living in N. Korea. No opinions allowed. The moderators are crazy with power. If you don't cozy up to one, their friends will get your comments deleted. Unless you are very old, very lonely, or not of sound mind, don't go near this. 30% ads, 25% scams, 45% lost pets, 0% usefull.
Nextdoor is a toxic wasteland of bigotry, conspiracies, misinformation, hate and lies run by a support staff that doesn't care or help. Extremely biased Leads and Review Team Members are allowed to target and bully individuals by reporting and voting to remove the most polite, factual, and innocent of comments even though they met all guidelines and local subject matter. The irony of Nextdoor is that while the platform was designed to help people be more connected to their communities and meet their neighbors, it acts to create a constant state of paranoia and alienate users from themselves and each other. I was constantly targeted and now indefinitely suspended for giving the most benign trivial comments as exampled below on my local neighborhoods gun violence. I was deleted for stating space aliens probably look nothing like humans. Nextdoor support staff are completely incompetent so save your sanity and avoid this horrendous app.
ND is just another radical liberal San Fran run company. They have gotten full of themselves with censorship, biased moderators and leads. They are more concerned with generating revenue from their never ending nauseating ads and have obviously forgotten their core values and mission statement. They release platform "enhancements" that make the user experience worse than what they already were.
If the Nextdoor moderators don't agree with what you say, it's deleted and you are put in Nextdoor. It is okay for certain people, left-leaning people, to make rude remarks and make fun of those they don't agree with no repercussions! I will never use this app again!
Next door is very restrictive in the conduct and comments allowed. Relative to visiting an HOA and learning to exit stage right. Statements and comments are misinterpreted to their way of thinking.
Next Door users take advantage of comments they choose to be offensive when they're not.
It's mostly like Facebook, but with more of your immediate neighbors involved. If you want to find out the worst in people that you can put faces to, this waste of time is for you. Hateful, spiteful, petty, self-involved grievances are constantly aired. If you do make the mistake of getting involved, they'll gang up on you and get your account suspended. Really, just go sort your sock drawer and don't waste you time here.
Horribly racist & useless.
I Haven't sold a thing on its marketplace, which has a free section that people post items with price sheets in the pictures, with a listing price of free, violating terms. I have been advertising on their platform for over a year as an operations manager, and as an individual, and got zero business leads.
It's discrimination, and your account will be suspended to argue that there is no white privilege, only american privilege. I'm told white privilege is a thing, and many people on the app openly embrace that anti-american ideology, but you can't post your opinion, at least not if youre white. It is somehow discrimination to inform your neighbors that there are illegal aliens living in the woods, with a link to the news article explaining that 3 have already murdered one citizen, while another was just found dead hiking, and let's not forget the woman found dead on the ma/pa trail! Or any of the children raped, murdered, some even in human sacrificial executions, in this country, usa, by illegal aliens the democrats have allowed into our country.
They actively censor speech that they don't like, so unless you lost a pet, this app is worthless!
It appears Nextdoor is run by Right-Wing conspiracy theorists. Many of ND guidelines are violated by their own Moderators and Team Leads. They post right-wing articles and attack anyone who disagrees with their views. Neighbors, who have reported them, usually end up being suspended. Yet, a neighbor who posted pictures of flowers and their dog had all of their posts removed LOL. Team leads often have duplicate accounts and, even tho those accounts are reported, ND allows them continue.
Nextdoor should be called Stasi or Savaak, or KGB, or something more befitting their callous, censoring ways; They have an agenda, and do very little to hide the fact. I gave up on posting anything useful to my neighbors there, save for lost cats, long ago. Someone should close the joint, and turn off the lights... OH! The lights are already off in this place. The Light of Day is not permitted.
1. There is this one guy, that JUMPS on everyones comments and basically tells them how stupid they are
2. I am not sure because of there vague misleading rules but possibly i said what a RIP OFF Angi's list was ( which is true) and they put me in the penalty box
3. Then out of no where i was permanently barred from because when i put my name in their app i left off the last 3 letters ( because the spy on our comments and sell our personal demographics/info to ANGI's list and many others Spoke to an employee and he was as useless as their app
ND censors speech they or their monitors don't like, such as conservative factual speech. Choose another platform! For example there is Conservative Club group that I am a member of and all too often good, honest interaction is censored by monitors claiming that the monitor did not pull the post.
I noticed during Covid they started censoring people who had opposing opinions. They have only improved on doing so, 5 months ago I limited my account and today I deleted it. They cater to babies and whiners they don't allow for differing opinions well, unless it feeds their agenda. Go on another app, one that allows for differing opinions, not discrimination nobody needs that but if I don't agreed with a government you/i should be able to speak that truth.
This site is the PITS. I am sick and tired of reading all the offensive comments on this site by the crazy cultist MAGAts who STILL won't give up their worship of an EVIL RAPIST FELON SOCIOPATH who only wants to be president because he is has a raging case of grandiose narcissism and so he can again ENRICH HIMSELF AND HIS SPAWN USING OUR TAX DOLLARS AND ALSO...AVOID PRISON. This site is supposed to be NON POLITICAL AND I see political posts from the MAGAt cult on here ALL THE TIME---THE MODERATORS ARE SLEEPING ON THE JOB! This site is PATHETIC AND OFFENSIVE!
When consumers give value information about corrupt businesses such as Annabelle's Pet Care-Nextdoor will permanently kick off the whistle blower and protect snd promote the illegal business. It's as if they take kickbacks from illegal businesses to hide their corruption.
I have heard about Karen's on this site. Yep! This Karen objected to me adding a laughing emoji to her inaccurate over emotional rant. She messaged me and continued the rant. I responded and then blocked her. Note-I never threatened her. I challenged her lack of facts. Of course, she whined and I was the one suspended. I read through the guidelines. No, I did not nothing wrong. I appealed and they still insisted in suspending me. I can't wait until the suspension is up. The Karen is going down!
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.
