I'll comment on a couple of things, and come back later.MeWe, from what I've heard, has Censored some members but,.... It's erratic, cuz' Porn, Rage, & Insanity can easily be found, as can "Conservatism", "Religion", etc.
The disturbing things are that MeWe has become zealous for "Block Chain Technology", & where it, at least 5 years ago, stated, & still states, on it's "Sign-in/Register" page,...."Your Control", "Your Data", which is not true!
Over the past two years, MeWe made all members have a "Signature" somehow tied to it's "Blockchain", with promises of it being able to be used across many platforms. No other Platform, to the best of my knowledge, has adopted this "Signature", & now, due to an uproar from the members, that "Signature" is not required to sign in to the platform. I use My Email/Password to "Sign in". Even though the "Signature" that they gave me, is tied to my Email, I won't use it.
But the Worst, & most recent development, is that MeWe decided to go "Dark Screen", which makes it hard for me to see, & They changed many Tabs, & Buttons, as well as Data that a Member can make public, such as "Post Count", & Profiles.
Pages are freezing up, misplaced, or gone. Some Groups that were Public involuntarily became Private, & some that were "Private" all of a sudden became "Public" Some Groups have lost their ability to Invite Members, & some Groups are stating that Members that they banned have been brought back in their Groups, & that they can not be removed.
I joined two "MeWe Help Groups" to see what happened, & what can be done, & Those who Rightfully complain about what has happened are being accused of being "Hateful", "Uncooperative", "Trouble-makers",etc. As the CHaos is building, the "MeWe Help Groups" keep stating "Be Patient! It will all work out, & Better Things are coming!", BUT,...... They will not state what those "Better Things" are.
Metaphorically it's like Jim Jones taking the 900 to Guyana, while speaking of the "Promised Land".
I dislike it when groups are private, but I see why it's done. Many pubic forums are bombarded with dumb ads and spam. It's annoying when you really want to subscribe.
Another thing. Do you know how many members they have in 2025?
