Never heard of NextDoor.
Not yet. Avoid it like the plague when you do.
I post on NextDoor in my area. This year is the worst for political postings by brain-dead liberal idiots. It started as a neighborhood information site with cheerful postings about animals, gardening, home improvement and general feel-good events. This year the crazies posted anti-Trump garbage and ruined the site. I fight back, and am pleased that there are a lot of conservatives that back me up. This, in a southern suburb of San Francisco. Yes there are God-loving decent people here that support Trump. When the arguing goes off the deep end, I take a break for a couple weeks. What's nice is that the liberal crazies are the ones that get banned, because they resort to name-calling and violent threats, unlike conservatives that use logic and facts.

I recently posted that I am a precinct chairman and a contact e-mail. I received many thank you responses. One of the respondents signed with Trump 2020. I saw no problem with this but two individual did and objected. A third individual, apparently a moderator in one of the neighborhoods piped in about keeping politics out of things. I defended both my original post which clearly conformed with the guidelines and the respondent who signed Trump 2020. It seems to have faded out now and Nextdoor did not really get involved.
It is easy to set up a group discussion for any particular topic so if I want to discus a political issue I can.
At this point I have to say Nextdoor is acting responsibly and I have no complaint with them. In an environment like this it is natural for some people to think they decide what is okay or not and some people to think they are in charge of everything. If posts remain respectful, things seem to work out.
In light of how bad twitter, facebook, etc. have become I must say, I have not a single complaint about Nextdoor. I think they are trying to do the right thing regardless of how difficult it is.
This of it as a hyperlocal Facebook, dominated by the Karens of the local HOA.
Quit NexrDoor when they wouldn’t let me look at neighborhood posts without agreeing to their rules for use.
In my neighborhood, NextDoor might as well be called KarenCentral.
