WARNING: MY EXPERIENCE WITH NEXTDOOR — PROCEED WITH CAUTION!
After repeatedly having my posts hidden or removed, I’ve had enough of Nextdoor!
My posts consisted primarily of supporting candidates of my choice, sharing official campaign materials, & reposting endorsements from police & firefighter associations to help residents make informed voting decisions. Nothing demeaning, degrading, or personally attacking opposing candidates.
Yet my posts were repeatedly removed or restricted while inflammatory accusations, personal attacks, and what I consider misinformation targeting members of our Newport Beach City Council remained visible. I’ve watched the same small, vocal group repeatedly regurgitate fear mongering & unsupported allegations, presenting opinions as established facts.
A former mayor and City Council member has referred to elected officials as a “Politburo” & volunteers serving on an advisory committee as “hostages.” Meanwhile, I’ve personally been labeled a “Republican operative,” a paid City Council employee, an incompetent PR representative, and someone supposedly manipulated & controlled by three mayors. All completely false! Apparently, sharing a different political perspective is more objectionable than making inflammatory accusations on ND. This isn’t about political parties or candidates. It’s about fairness, accountability, and the right to express differing opinions without selective moderation.
In this reel, I’m sharing examples of my own posts that Nextdoor removed or restricted. Judge for yourself.
Based on my experience, I believe Nextdoor’s moderation has been inconsistent and has fostered an unnecessarily hostile and divisive environment. I feel they are biased. I’m done wasting valuable time on a platform that, in my opinion, rewards negativity while discouraging respectful disagreement.
Perhaps Nextdoor should consider renaming itself Gossip Girl. At least that would better reflect my experience!
Different opinions deserve equal treatment. Facts matter. Civility matters. Accountability matters. For EVERYONE.

Yes, ND is a sewer full of sewer worthy behavior. Sad what has become of some in our community.

I have been watching the attacks and I am so sorry Daryl. It’s obviously one sided and if you don’t agree with their agenda, they go on the attack. I’m done with @nextdoor SHAMEFUL
