I’m normally an inbox-zero kind of person, because unaddressed notifications are super stressful for me. But I haven’t used gmail for anything but spam in a several years so this prompted me to go have a look:
3,958 in my inbox - and instead of stress, I love it. Over 1300 of those are because I, apparently, never deleted my xenophobia.com nextdoor account.

xenophobia.comlol, that’s so true though. On mine there is a lady who posts about 100 times per day, so she clearly doesn’t have a job. And she is obsessed with thinking there are gunshots. We live in a super safe suburban neighborhood. There are no gunshots. It’s hilarious.Bishma@discuss.tchncs.de 3 months ago
I stopped visiting very shortly after it opened up because every post was stuff like you said:
I used to think I just had extra shitty neighbors, but I’ve heard similar from a lot of people.

Maybe it’s not that the neighbours are awful but that the subset of neighbours that use this kind of app is mostly awful.

Omg, my neighbour feeds the squirrels also, because he thinks they can’t fend for themselves… So I had shells, bread, trays for water, etc. just littered at my front door. While he lives above me, not thinking about the consequences of feeding wild animals.

The trouble is caused by completely unreasonable folks who if it weren’t for the internet would be silently stuck in their house peering out the window and keeping their miserable energy to themselves.
…thinking about it a similar explanation goes for a lot of toxicity you see on the internet!

It’s me. I clap some 2x4s together occasionally, to keep her on her toes.

We did have a hilarious troll who would rage about people taking a shit in their mailbox. Or maybe someone really kept shitting in their mailbox. Either was it was an entertaining read.

While I don’t disagree with you, she looks to be in her 50s. That’s hardly old. But yes, they fall prey to every single propaganda piece ever written on FB.
