Can someone send me a list of other audio apps like this one and clubhouse? I would like to check them out.

Cindy, you're right. I don't have a lot of faith in blocking people. Three years ago, I would have totally been all over the block feature and it's effectiveness. Now, though, I'm a lot more hesitant about the effectiveness of block buttons, because I've learned that people can get around that, and that blocking features aren't always implemented correctly. This is why moderators need to do their jobs and they need to ban people who shame others, disrespect, others, and name call people. Blocking people should not be the only tool for this type of stuff.

The block feature can rid you of the need to see content from anybody whos content you don't want to see. If you choose to leave someone unblocked and they are having such a negative impact on you as an individual, that is when you should ask yourself the question, why am I continuing to look at stuff which bothers me so much? You can greatly improve what your feed looks like with a few taps on the block button. The people who are just here to cause conflict are a small minority of the userbase.

You just don't seem to give the block feature enough credit. Take a look at this post for example, the usual corrupters are not in here, I gather that you blocked them? You know the likes of Gordon and Company? Because otherwise they would be in here picking this post and shredding it to pieces. Is that going to prevent them from picking apart other people? No not at all, but if you are so worried about what they are doing out in public on other people's posts, then why do you have them blocked? Why not be out there and fight them with everything you've got? Reporting until your heart is happy. That's what I mean by you can't save the world in this app. So enjoy yourself, make this an experience that is fun for you. I will not be back to this post, but I do wish you well and whatever you decide

I heard some of the comments on here. Yeah for sure there’s definitely the block button. Don’t let some of these people run you off completely. Take your time and take a breather. As long as you don’t make this app your life you will be fine.

I'm going to address something that has come up in the comments, and that is the block feature. The block feature should not be the only feature available for moderation purposes. I'm glad that the block feature exists, and I'm also very glad that the block feature is implemented very well on this app. I have been on other apps where the block feature is basically useless. With that being said, though, the block feature only stops you from seeing peoples profiles. It does not stop people from disrespecting others, shaming people for not knowing how to do stuff, etc. If people are disrespecting others, shaming other people for not knowing how to do stuff, and name-calling others, they should be banned. I would love to see a community that encourages and respects other people, but I don't believe that telling others to just block other people is the way to achieve that community. The way I see it, if you want to have a community where people encourage and respect each other, you can't just tolerate bad behavior. Yes, we are all adults here, but sometimes, even adults need to be held accountable.

Macy I don't know you or anything about you, I don't know how old you are, but I do know that we have never interacted on any other platforms, so I definitely don't wanna insult your intelligence. But I have to put my kid gloves on here. The reason why it's more prevalent in this community is because we are so tiny. Painting the entire community with the same brush does no one any favors and is in fact quite judgmental. There are a handful of jerks out here and I will tell you that I know most of them from other platforms and they do this for shock value, to get a rise out of people. It's no excuse for the behavior because they're still jerks, but that's why they do it. Take notice and then do you. Post what you wanna post, interact with who you want to interact with, have some laughs, some great conversation, block liberally, and then at the end of the night you close the app. Come out here for you and no one else. The world cannot be saved on this app. Take mental breaks as often as possible because they are definitely necessary on platforms like this. Those that you've had pleasant interactions with I'm sure don't want to see you go, but I guarantee you the rest of the app doesn't care, so you might as well do what you want and have fun while doing it. And getting upset about a laughing emoji at a comment or post might mean you need a little bit thicker skin or just not take yourself so seriously on platforms like this. What I've stated here is nothing more than what I have gathered from my own experiences on platforms like this with jerks that run a muck and is genuinely from my heart, and I do hope you take it as such because I'm really not trying to be mean, just helpful

Hello, I don't feel that blanket statements are realistic. I have found some amazing people here. I follow them, so then when it comes time for me to go through the feed, I go to my follow feed and see the great ones. It would be a shame For kind, intelligent people to leave. I hope you stick around and follow some people who follow the same things that you believe in.
