Best places to get human reviews/recommendations outside of reddit?
Often times when duckduckgoing (is that the right term for that) advice for products, I use the !ddgr key to directly search reddit for advice. But in a post-blackout world, I need to do this a lot less. So I want to know what the best places are to get reviews and advice for products that are human and not top 10 listicals.

If it’s home-related (or services) I’ve had decent luck with Nextdoor.
Lots of variation in quality for nextdoor. It depends on where you live since they group by neighborhoods. I left nextdoor during the pandemic because it was a never ending stream of rightwing talking points about vaccines and shutdowns.
Alas! Yeah I saw a fair bit of that go by but mostly ignored it; my area is fairly diverse politically so there were people yelling into the void and also people who weren’t. I definitely wouldn’t recommend it for just like, hanging out and chatting with people, but they’ve been pretty good at least where I am about recommendations. Maybe that does vary by how crappy your neighbors are, though.
