Vent & Care: ShareSpace

Пока что реальных людей здесь мало. Только сама небольшая команда, да приглашённые студенты за деньги выкладывают посты. Сама идея приложения не новая. Чувствуется желание основателей просто заработать денег на рекламе и платных подписках.

Loads of people tells about their problems and you can help them! Somebody can also support you. Amazing idea!

What I really enjoy - it’s a non-toxic app. Write about your feelings, issues with friends or loved ones, problems with colleagues and get feedback from other users. You can’t be all anonymous and still share. Recommend it for sure!!

I finally found a safe place where my thoughts and emotions are not devalued. thank you, this app is helping my mental health, so I’m becoming more confident. and although this is still the beginning of the journey, I believe I can better understand myself 🤍

This app helped me to find myself! Many of my problems have been solved! Thanks to the developers!

This app allowed me to share and not be afraid. People on this app don’t judge and are very helpful.

This app, this community is very therapeutic

This community provides me with a level of comfort thats just very difficult to find in person. Through this online support, I’ve noticed my esteem and overall mental state improve a lot and it feels so good to be helped by people that genuinely want to help. I recommend this app to anyone looking to improve their mental state or even just maintain a good mental state anyway!

I wanted to like this app, but unfortunately it is far from what I can in good conscience even consider recommending. On top of all the bugs and glitches there is no private feed and you have to post publicly. While they intend to add a private feed they suggested for now to use the block feature. However when they launched they didn’t actually have their block feature working properly and did not make it a priority - overall questionable development choice. A mental health app launching without any sort of private setting in general just seems like a bad call overall. At first it seems very professional as far as the developers go but the more you get involved the more you find that it feels like it’s being run by children. There is no consistency or professionalism. The community moderators are also just regular users and they’re rolling out an update where you cannot block them once they’re assigned. This has to be one of the most toxic platforms I have come across and horrifyingly it’s a mental health platform. Users attacking users, moderators attacking users, moderators posting triggering content, moderators with personal biases and conflict, no feeling of professionalism what so ever, no consistency to what they do and do not allow, no notice account deletions, no way to formally mark triggering content, no way to filter content, and so on. And this is supposed to be a mental health app? I don’t think being new is an excuse to launch this archaic when mental health is supposed to be the focus. I wasn’t even involved in anything and it drained me just watching the absolute nightmare that was constantly occurring on the feed. I would absolutely not recommend this to anyone struggling mentally because if anything, it’s going to make you worse. The developers and moderators show no promising future for the app and it’s not worth the emotional energy trying to see it through.

I’m quite enjoying this app so far. I have to say, I NEVER rate an app 5 stars, no matter how much I love it, but as the staff here all seem really nice and on top of things, and the fact that this is a mental health app, I feel like it deserves the 5. There are, obviously, many things it could most DEFINITELY improve on. Such as: 1. Make a feature where your unread notifications are highlighted, so you don’t get confused with the ones you’ve already seen. 2. Add an option in settings to chose which notifications you’d like to receive. Currently, I’m receiving EVERYTHING, but for example, I don’t really care about anything except the comments I get on my posts or the replies to my comments on others. I’m also receiving notifications for likes, people I follow posting something, new groups, etc. I don’t care about all that. Overall, however, I like this app.
