needs all ur data?

could be cool if it wasn't a data scam. why do I need to agree to terms of service that include reading my push notifications? why do I need to agree that you're allowed to sell my data to third parties in order to shop sustainably? weird. it's also weird to offer logins from big companies like facebook and google when your whole app is about not funding billionaires. (also the loopholes of facebook data scams in ur privacy policy r weird) weirdos. not to mention the other reviews about how you store ssn's? hmmm. weird....

Response from developer

Fair questions — trust is the whole point of what we're building. Quick facts: we don't read your notifications (that clause covers the device info needed to deliver them), we don't store SSNs or payment details (Stripe handles payments), and social login is optional. We don't sell your personal data. You've convinced us some of our legal language needs plainer wording, and we're on it. Anything else, we're at info@thecommons.earth.

Useless

Might be a good idea on paper. But there’s no reason I need to give them any more personal info than I already do

Bad UI

Can’t do anything unless you give them your data. Font is not accessible. The whole main page feels spammy like when you open Microsoft edge and a ton ridiculous articles are screaming at you to open them. Unclear purpose and concept for the app. Overall an overwhelming experience, and I got nowhere since i didn’t want to give my phone number.

It's ok

I don't like that they are labeling Costco as a bad company just because it is a big company doesn't automatically make it a bad company they support DEI and so does ALDI Costco and ALDI cares about the people a lot of companies don't like Target Walmart and Amazon so I would fix your app DEI is really important for the people

Pls get back to me thx Commons

Unable to remove linked cards

Very unethical to not have an easy “unlink” button. I have to go through third party app or email them (no response after multiple days) to remove my linked cards. Questionable.
