Quotes of the week

Hear from some of the most impactful users to drive changes

I like this application for local neighbors and neighborhoods to communicate with one another. The one thing I would recommend adding is that with such a diverse population I would like the ability to translate posts that aren’t in my native language. Otherwise, I feel I miss what some neighbors have to say.
geenaroses
I used to like this app for keeping updated with what’s going on in my neighborhood. Now Nextdoor is turning into a form social media like Facebook. What happened to it being a neighborhood app? On a daily basis, I see posts of people complaining, venting, asking for money and free stuff, lost & found pets. Hardly see anything about what’s happening in my neighborhood.
Not a neighborhood app
The app's history was one of community focus. Now it's advertisements, politics, and spam. During all these updates, they no longer patch the community side; we've lost the ability to do many things, such as post in a specific area. This bug hasn't been fixed within the Android version.
