> I think it helps that the groups really are hyper-local, on the order of a few streets, so it’s very likely you’re interacting with one of your neighbors at any given time.

Are there ever complaints about not being able to reach friends who happen to live just outside the geo boundaries?

It’s not really a social network in that sense: posts aren’t directed to individuals but to the neighborhood. If you do want to reach the surrounds, there is an option to make your post viewable to nearby neighborhoods, which is useful when selling stuff or posting about events or lost items

Isn't it the same as e. g. reddit (posting to subreddits, not to individuals) which sits firmly in the "social network" category?
