As social interactions become more distant, Nextdoor has seen a spike in engagement as it helps neighbors connect and organize without risking physical contact
John Herrman / New York Times : Tweets: @tmamut , @sjb2448 , @jwherrman , @nytstyles , @thefriley , @jenntakahashi , and @kantrowitz Tweets: Tatyana Mamut / @tmamut : We just launched new ways for neighbors to support their local businesses. We have new ways for local businesses to post giftcards, takeout and fundraising options on @Nextdoor so neighbors can help the local businesses they love! https://business.nextdoor.com/ ... #techforgood #tech @sjb2448 : Been with @jenntakahashi since this started. This shit is genius, and she's the epitome of work smarter not harder. She doesn't make people sound like assholes online, they do that themselves, she aggregates and posts it. Your own fault if you end up there Skippy https://twitter.com/... John Herrman / @jwherrman : some not terrible things happening on neighborhood apps right now! but they're also quickly discovering their limits https://www.nytimes.com/... NYT Styles / @nytstyles : Remember when we used to complain about each other on Nextdoor? Now, some of us are trying to be good neighbors. https://www.nytimes.com/... Sarah Friar / @thefriley : “In tough times, we need our public agencies...like the fire department or in this case the hospital. But when it really comes down to it, it's your neighbors who save you. I think that's what people are discovering on Nextdoor.” #kindnessnextdoor https://finance.yahoo.com/... Jenn Takahashi / @jenntakahashi : “Nextdoor has also continued to function in another way: as an object of bewilderment and humor. Jenn Takahashi, who runs @bestofnextdoor... hasn't been too surprised by what has been sent her way.” https://www.nytimes.com/... via @nytimes @jwherrman Alex Kantrowitz / @kantrowitz : Some good news: Nextdoor is filling up with heartwarming posts from neighbors offering each other toilet paper, money, and willing to run errands for seniors. Yes, there's some hope out there folks. And even the @bestofnextdoor account is inspired. https://www.buzzfeednews.com/ ... https://twitter.com/...
