I’m on it, your address is never shown, and it’s not linked to other accounts you hold. I find it useful. I just checked mine, the latest post is from Ofgen to tell you how to avoid scams from bogus energy companies.

It does show your local area but never an address as far as I know.

I was put off joining when I realised not only my name would be seen but also my address! Has that changed now?

I find it useful for local tradesmen and to date only one has let me down.
I just remove the names from connect and to date only one has hassled me but he soon got the message.

Thank you tanith
I will see if I can alter my name.
Perhaps I live in a strange area!
Actually, some of the places nearby are rather strange

I’ve been on Nextdoor for quite a while and found no problems . Nobody has tried to message me apart from a lady who bought an ebike I was selling. It’s great for local information. I think you can join using just your first name and an initial of your surname.

Hello
Yesterday I downloaded the Nextdoor app, and did all the necessary doings.

It’s not the first time I’ve done it; the previous time it mildly freaked me out and I deleted it.

I feel quite uncomfortable with my full name being on show; and I’ve been inundated by men (only men) wanting to ‘connect’.

I’ve had a pleasant chat with a lady regarding my need for a cleaner, so that’s one positive.

What are your experiences with Nextdoor?
Thank you smilebrew
