Except it’s really not because it’s supposed to anonymous, which it isn’t.

Recommendations for roofers, electricians and house cleaners make Nextdoor somewhat useful. Just don't linger on the site because thee is a lot of gossip/garbage

There is an entire Twitter/X account called “The Best of Nextdoor.” That says it all.

That said, I see a lot of single mothers asking for food and clothing for their kids. Good people helping them out.
Gives me good feelings of not everyone is out to scam others.


We just get a lot of middle-aged troublemakers who live to gaslight, accuse, shame, and fabricate all in the interest of trying to get people to pay attention to them.


Wow. You are just rude. Whatever happened to kindness and being neighborly!


So true. If one is truly kind and neighborly, then one becomes part of a neighborhood’s fabric. Someone people know by name not avoid, invite to the small neighborhood gatherings happening regularly, seek out and not comment on, and think of as regularly considerate of others. Performing on Nextdoor is not a substitute.

There was a doozy on our Nextdoor last month along the lines of:

"I need 8 folding chairs for a Christmas gathering. My family who I generally don't get along with and haven't seen for several years, are coming. They must be padded and match. I don't drive due to my fibromyalgia so you would need to drop them off on Christmas Eve and pick them up on 12/16."

No idea if

People should do things with their neighbors more often and build lasting and meaningful relationships. It takes a village!

People do things together in my neighborhood. The crazies and troublemakers just aren’t involved. Too busy spouting off on Nextdoor.

They probably feel left out. Go over to their homes and build a relationship with them.

It's a lot of nosy Nellie women complaining about dog poop and freaking out, if not totally losing their S over any type of door-to-door salesperson.
