Abandoned other controversial app(s) when i found this pro Palestine app
Greenpool45
I was reading news the other day and found this app that is friendlier to pro Palestine users and other topics that are sensitive right now so I was happy to try it out and i am enjoying it. While Its still early in use, i like the freedom of this app a-lot. The combination of other app to make this one big app that frels fresh and clean. It will be nice if we have an option to go live on the app like other apps do, where you can communicate with other people internationally, send gifts and emotes in the live chat as well. I noticed the app is only available in Arabic and English, I would suggest perhaps expanding the languages to include european languages as ell such as french, german, spanish, etc. plus asian languages like korean, russian, chinese, hindi…it would be a sign of improvement and it would open the app to a wider market of people who might not know English or Arabic.Other than that, I plan on using this app for a long time going forward. Thank you for giving us this option for a friendlier app for pro palestine people.
Honest opinion
Thomas Gx
I’m gonna give a very honest and fair review of this app and start off by saying this IS NOT a TikTok alternative, from what I can tell this app is basically trying to be Instagram and Twitter, but better. I’ll give them credit the do allow free speech on their platform which I’m all for free speech, I love free speech. However this app to me is just very boring as of now, I don’t know if it’s just because it’s so new and more people need to get in it to make it more diverse in politics and other forms of content, but it just doesn’t have anything I actually like. It’s mostly just an app for people who like free speech and advocate for free speech, and are Liberals. I am Catholic Conservative, and I don’t mind anything of what this app is trying to be in fact quite the opposite, I hope this app succeeds in everything it’s trying to me, which from what I can tell is a good social media app that gives you freedom of speech and press, with hopefully in the future with more people in it, better content to consume also and a more diverse political and content based system. I hope this app does succeed however I cannot find any reason to use this app other than freedom of speech and finding things that are censored in other apps. Hopefully in the future I do use this app more as again i genuinely want this app to succeed, and hopefully this app only gets better from here on out!
Love it vs the new TikTok

Just got properly into **UpScrolled** and I'm kinda obsessed? It's such a refreshing change from the TikTok doomscroll.For starters, the vibe just feels more... grown-up? But in a fun way, not a boring way. The algorithm actually learns what I *genuinely* like, not just what keeps me staring blankly for an hour. I'm finding way more interesting niche hobbies, deeper discussions, and genuinely useful stuff mixed in with the entertainment.But the biggest thing for me is how **much less restrictive it all feels**. After using UpScrolled, going back to TikTok suddenly feels... **neutered**. You know the feeling—the weirdly strict community guidelines that seem to flip overnight, the audio that gets mysteriously removed, the constant dance of "is this gonna get shadow-banned?" It's exhausting. On UpScrolled, the creativity just flows. People can have actual conversations, the humor feels sharper and less sanitized, and you don't feel like you're constantly walking on eggshells.It's like TikTok is the overly cautious, corporate-controlled mall, and UpScrolled is the cool, sprawling flea market where you find the weirdest and best stuff. The freedom is honestly the best part. If you're tired of the same robotic trends and want a platform that feels like it's made for users, not just advertisers, you gotta try it.10/10, my screen time is up but I don't feel worse for it.
One problem
Froggerparty
I so far have liked the app. I love that there’s a community where you can be uncensored. However I have one problem that’s been bothering me since downloading it and I haven’t seen anyone say anything about it yet. While this is a 17+ rated app and the point is to be uncensored, people have been taking advantage of the un-censorship and posting literal pornography. When you go to report something one of the options is for “nudity and sexual content”. I have reported I think over 7 different accounts for posting pornography along with the video and I keep seeing them pop back up. I know this app is supposed to be uncensored but putting a “sensitive content warning” shouldn’t be allowing this on an app that doesn’t advertise pornography. If you have the option to put that on a video or if the monitors are putting that on the video then they should be reviewing it before it gets posted. This app should be for bringing people together and spreading awareness about what happening in the world that other apps are censoring.
