Pretty darn ok
Love the organization on the app, love that you can have a personal and business page at the same time. The reporting system is great and you can see the changes the developers are making for the better. People are putting up job postings and offering their home goods and services. It’s a great platform.
Overall I would definitely use the app regularly aside from a couple things. For one it feels like a less official Facebook, people rant and post tons of stuff that has almost nothing to do with the actual neighborhood communities. There are also SO MANY lost pets posts, I think it would be a great idea to have a section specifically for lost pets and a way to mark them as found. I think it would also be great to have a more clear run down of what the platform will support or not, this could be complete user error but I saw lots of people complain about being “censored” and having posts taken down for the content.
I think overall people are just using it as a second Facebook and not as a neighborhood community app and it’s messing with the way the app flows. People will be people and talk about what they like of course, but I’d rather the outlines and regulations be made clear to avoid more rage rants about how the platform is silencing people, funnily for things the platform will not support or allow.Show lessEllieMmouse

I want to thank this incredible platform; it not only keeps our community together on different topics, but also gives us the opportunity to make ourselves visible by offering our services. This app gave me the opportunity to work for myself again, being visible in different neighborhoods in Miami. Building a client portfolio takes time and dedication and Nextdoor gave me the opportunity to be seen by thousands of families at the same time. I started using it when that pandemic 😷 that paralyzed the entire world. I quit my job as Chief Engineer for 4 buildings in North Miami, so I went all in and won 💪. In 2008 when Real Estate fell, I was working independently as a Handyman and I was doing well, but that economic disaster in 2008 made me have to be a Chief Engineer for hotels and then those four buildings. I had already given up on going back to work for myself, but I found Nextdoor and I decided to leave everything and go back to work for myself and Nextdoor gave me my life back. Today, 4 years later, I can say that I feel very proud of all the effort I put into each job and for being recognized by my clients, highlighted in the more than 530 reviews from neighbors on my profile. Something incredible and very difficult to achieve 530 reviews; More than any other contractor in all of Miami? in 4 years working with Nextdoor, and this is why I love ❤️ this platform. Thank you, thank you 🙏 and a thousand more thanks, for giving me back my work freedom.Show lessLuis Cumellas
Cannot block nuisance neighbor on Platform
I started posting a fun fact Friday related to my industry on this platform to draw in potential clients to view my page. There is a particular neighbor that comments on every single post anyone makes and the comments they make are always unrelated and sometimes inappropriate. These comments are condescending and annoying. I attempted to block this person as they were commenting false news/political things/controversial topics, I just don’t want that spread throughout my page because they comment something on every single post. Even going as far as making their own posts mocking other peoples posts. I do not expect Nextdoor to do anything with this person’s account. However, after blocking this individual they are still able to see, react and comment on posts I make. You also are not able to delete other peoples comments on your post. This person is a real neighbor, I didn’t grow up in this area but a friend who did was bullied by this person. I wish to continue advertising on this platform I do enjoy it but this person is ruining it for me and there’s nothing I can do about it. I tried blocking them and I report their comments, I don’t want to respond and feed what they’re doing. If this person continues harassing our community on this platform, without the ability to actually block them then I’m going to discontinue using this platform.Show lessadd Laurenjoan
