### 5/5 — It’s great

*2026-07-21, version 1.2.34*

Love it

### 1/5 — Blocking

*2026-05-07, version 1.2.34*

Can’t seem to block Sylvester no matter how many times I block him. 
Has been taking over by Sylvester, not worth it anymore.

### 1/5 — Used to work

*2026-04-16, version 1.2.34*

I loved this app even though there was a spammer posting the same ridiculous stuff over and over. Now that I upgraded to iOS 26 the app won't load. Too bad for me as there were some great memes and information posted. 🤷🏼‍♂️

The app now works but is TOTALLY useless due to one spammer, Sylvester, who keeps changing his username and posts the same dribble hundreds of times! Unless the mods can find a way to permanently ban his ip address, there's no point in using this app.

### 1/5 — Ignorance

*2026-04-08, version 1.2.34*

I am amazed at the level of ignorance shown by so many. The lack of facts is astounding. It scares me to think these people are raising the future leaders of this country.

### 5/5 — Truth!

*2026-03-08, version 1.2.34*

Always good to have a source of truth in a world that loves the lies and deception.

### 5/5 — Fantastic site wow free speech is cool!

*2026-02-24, version 1.2.34*

This free speech concept is really cool. Facebook and YouTube should try it!

### 5/5 — Review

### 5/5 — review

*2026-02-02, version 1.2.34*

OUTSTANDING

### 1/5 — Used to work

*2026-01-29, version 1.2.34*

I loved this app even though there was a spammer posting the same ridiculous stuff over and over. Now that I upgraded to iOS 26 the app won't load. Too bad for me as there were some great memes and information posted. 🤷🏼‍♂️
