From CNET: Nextdoor, a social media platform for neighborhoods, hasn't changed much over the past few years but that could start to shift.
On Tuesday, the company unveiled new features, including the ability for users to send requests to connect with neighbors so that posts, comments and reactions from their connections are highlighted in the app's news feed. Nextdoor users will also be able to mention their neighbors they connect with in their comments and posts. The app will recommend neighbors you may know.
Nextdoor users can greet new neighbors with reactions and virtual gifts such as cookies and flower emojis. A redesigned profile will encourage users to add a short bio, chosen pronouns and a photo of themselves.
The company is also redesigning the platform's layout so it's easier to search the app and repetitive and outdated links are removed. The revamped layout and a more relevant feed are currently being tested and will roll out globally in the coming months.
