    I remember using next door for about a week before deleting it off my phone. What a fucking nightmare. If you haven’t lost your faith in humanity yet, that one will fast track you

      My area has near constant posts about a vehicle driving by someone’s house, accompanied by blurry footage of absolutely nothing of note, and half the commenters are convinced that it’s for a crime and the other half are like, “you know this is a public street with other residents, right?” God forbid a realtor ever takes photos for comps. It’s the fucking mafia, out to steal all of Janice’s lawn ornaments, obviously.

      It’s just an absolute black hole of suck, but I work for a nearby city, so it’s a good way to find out if there are resident concerns that aren’t batshit crazy, so I keep my account active. I can only tolerate about 5 minutes at a time, though.

      Nextdoor is literally useless house wives removed about NIMBY shit. I despise it. It is actively DNS Blocked at home.
