    Not working at all

    Date: Feb 13 2025
    Summary

    My overall is that the Login is so much of a hassle that it isn't even worth it. And the support is not support - it's a joke to be honest.

    Positive

    I don't know of any since I can't get to create an account on the platform, because of the hassle with login. Sadly.

    Negative

    Their login system doesn't work at all. It simply sucks to be honest.

    I tried last month to create an account, where I actually succeeded creating an account, but everytime I wanted to login, I had to go to my email account to get a verification mail, which was a hassle, so I deleted it. I couldn't even used an ordinary password.

    Today I tried six times in total just an hour ago - and I couldn't even create an account.

    I can't recommend this media at all. Solely because of the login hassle.
    Sadly, because I want to leave Facebook..

    I guess MeWe don't want users.

    Can’t log back in

    Date: May 12 2024
    Summary

    Can’t log in.

    Positive

    Can’t log back in. Once logged out MeWe will block you out. Will not accept password. No way to reset password. So delete app and move on. They will say a log in code has been sent. No log in code sent.

    Negative

    Same as above. Can’t log back in.

    Former MeWe member

    Date: Sep 24 2024
    Summary

    A letdown. It is incomprehensible to me why the company would seek to alienate most of the people who liked the original format.

    Positive

    No free speech restrictions, no ads, open forums, talking with people daily. Ultimately it proved to be a failed social media site because of the new format.

    Negative

    For four years this was a good place to be online. When MeWe decided to stop the successful open format for something called Social Web I read about it and knew it would be just like Facebook, Instagram and every other controlled social media website and I deleted my account rather than switch over. So you lost a customer who had been on MeWe for four years.

    Censorship

    Updated: Jan 05 2023
    Summary

    Extremely DISAPPOINTED.

    I do not recommend MeWe to anyone looking to express his Human Rights and own opinion.

    Positive

    I joined MeWe as an alternative to Facebook censorship and "Anti-Free-speech stand as they are promoting themselves as the "next-gen social network with no ads, no spyware, and no BS"

    In the beginning, everything was going ok and enjoyed writing and sharing and was pleased.

    Negative

    MeWe claims it is promoting "Free-Speech" and is the":

    "Next-gen social network with no ads, no spyware, and no BS"

    MeWe does not allow uploading photos/pictures with videos.

    But, when I "SHARED" yesterday a news article published in a well known newspaper and a video on the same article from YouTube" ...

    Today, I was VERY CHOCKED to find out that MeWe locked out/banned me from accessing my page and other pages for twenty-four (24) hours, which is still running even after the 24 hours.

    Despite that the article and video, I shared, were published in a well know newspaper and YouTube ... the later is known to censor "Free Speech" ... in other words they are in the public domain, MeWe deleted both the article and the video as they say they are against their policy of prohibiting: pornography (which by the way I saw different pornographic pages MeWe allowed), scamming, impersonation, graphic violence, harmful threats or spam, etc.

    Moreover, MeWe threatened to block me for extended periods and even completely deleting my account if I repeat the “alleged” breach of their policy.

    MeWe did not mention which article or video that were … “Objectionable” … and did NOT ask me for any explanation or provided any detail of any person who allegedly “Objected” to the article and video I shared.

    MeWe IS against Free Speech” …

    I do NOT recommend MeWe to anyone … particularly those who are looking to express and practice their “Free Speech” human right.

    Lovin' it

    Date: Apr 29 2022
    Summary

    When I first logged on to this app it was a little bit of getting used to a change from what I had been using for years but all in all, it is an easy app to navigate and I am loving it. I just wish more of my friends would follow suit on leaving the other social media they use.

    Positive

    I like that it is easy to navigate, I haven't been censored and dinged one time for a post. I have replaced Facebook with MeWe full-time.

    Negative

    I can't think of one thing I don't like. I am a big fan. One thing I do run into trouble with is loading pictures onto MeWe. Sometimes I have to try several times to load my pictures but eventually, I get them all on there.

    Not great for companies

    Date: Nov 22 2022
    Summary

    MeWe had promise, but it's not a great place for brands if they do not allow autoposting via RSS. If they add this, it will be worth using as a company.

    Positive

    Lightweight interface, nice color scheme, not a ton of bots or spam like some other social networks have.

    Negative

    For companies/brands MeWe is not great. MeWe does not allow autoposting from RSS. Someone there suggested we hire someone simply to copy and paste articles to MeWe. This is silly. Every other social network allows autoposting from RSS.

    Excellent Platform

    Date: Jan 15 2022
    Summary

    Has been a good platform to join - we know who funded it originally so no Chinese Govt stealing data like on TikTok or Gettr. Also NOT the awful manipulative platforms like FB, Twitter, Instagram, etc. Overall a solid, privacy focused, freedom of information, not manipulated platform. What is there not to like? Thank you MeWe!

    Positive

    No ads! Algorithms don’t control my feed, I do. Great platform for being able to find truth and not manipulated information. Glad I am here. Unfortunately, they are underfunded because they don’t sell their users to AD companies. This is both a pro and a con. Very hard for a platform to monetize without selling out their users. MeWe has held out. Hoping they get more funding. Really like this platform.

    Negative

    Took me a while to find good groups where adult content pushers didn’t jump in to the group. Also bunch of obvious scammers/hackers trying to friend me - you know the type - happened on FB as well, decline decline decline weeded them out. UI can be clunky at times - but hey, I’ll take it because the pros are way more. Unfortunately, they are underfunded because they don’t sell their users to AD companies.

    Better than FB

    Date: Jan 14 2022
    Summary

    Best alternative to FB out there. It's growing fast and shows a lot of promise. Everybody should leave FB.

    Positive

    Lots of fun groups. Lots of good features I like that there's no ads and no algorithms. its growing fast.

    Negative

    Hard to get friends to move over. People are addicted to Facebook.
