      No kidding. Nextdoor is a disaster.

      I checked in recently and this literally was my news feed

      1. Dance in the park Event
      2. Free boxes
      3. Bar has new sandwich
      4. WHY IS BLACK TEENAGER WALKING ON SIDEWALK
      5. Pictures of a rainbow

        Mine right now (sorted by recent):

        • Ad for local flooring installer
        • Sponsored ad for power company
        • “Hey, everyone. 👋 I’m Shawn. Hello!”
        • Ad for local home remodeling
        • User giving away a cat
        • Sponsored ad for garage doors
        • Another user welcome message
        • Found pet alert from local animal shelter
        • Sponsored ad for bathroom showers
        • Ad for local bathroom remodeling
        • Ad for local handyman service

        So when it’s not ranty freakouts it’s 85% ads.

      I wish there was a way to see only posts from my neighborhood (my condo building) and nothing else.
