What is Commonfolk? Commonfolk is a new virtual town hall experience for American citizens. You'll become immersed with others located in your congressional district and see posts featuring their thoughts and opinions. You'll safely connect yourself with your community. There's no commenting, no disliking, and no biased voting. Therefore, you'll feel completely comfortable with what you're sharing. The only way someone will know your identity is if they vote on your post and agree with what you have to say. If someone disagrees with what you say, they'll simply scroll on by without knowing your identity. Why join Commonfolk? Making your voice heard has become complicated and inefficient. We provide a direct line of communication to elected officials. We are the virtual town hall forum where the opinions that matter most are those for the people and by the people. Unlike most social media platforms, we are not using complex algorithms to maximize user engagement at the expense of their mental health. We also don't convolute our users' feeds with political persuasion. **Highlights** - We provide you with your latest civic information provided by the Civic Information API including your local, state, and federal officials. - You can email your posts directly to your elected officials within Commonfolk. - You can send an email or call your elected officials directly within Commonfolk. - You can filter your post feeds by location tags respective to your address. Our Mission Commonfolk is bringing back the integrity of American politics, social media, and elected officials. A word from our founder - "I started Commonfolk with people like myself in mind. I wanted to give common American citizens a chance to have their voice heard." Any feedback? Contact us at contact@commonfolk.io Follow us on Instagram, and Facebook - @commonfolkllc
