Contact Spoutible Support

I was so excited for a new kind of social media where you could express yourself freely and not live in fear of harassment and hate. Sadly, Spoutible ain’t it. I used the website and then app for over a year and saw the true nature of the CEO. He micromanages every issue on the site and attacks users for any criticism or even for just questioning him, putting them on blast to his tens of thousands of followers. I have seen him hold pods, like Twitter spaces, just to badmouth and lie about users. He suspends or bans users for unknown reasons, never telling them or anyone what their infraction was. He is obsessed with the royal family so hope that is your jam. Also, he uses Twitter more than his own website so that tells you something. Spoutible is good for some lols at its CEO, but not for free speech.

I was really rooting for Spoutible when I first signed up, tired of the endless political trolling, racism, misogyny, etc. at Twitter. Over time, however, Spoutible has become stale without any kind of algorithm or any informative larger accounts to liven things up. They seem to do a good job of keeping the bots away, which is nice, but without a basic effort at moderation the site is devolving into groups that attack one another and bring the entire experience back to (just like Twitter) largely blocking accounts just to keep your feed from being a bunch of spats, raging, and bickering. Some accounts appear to have been given carte blanche to harass others without any sort of accountability, which is suspicious given the site’s supposed credo of being a safe space. It became tiresome to observe, and if you’re not into observing the most base, middle school behavior of adults on social media, I’d skip this one. Spoutible is an interesting and noble concept, but human behavior and lack of coherent moderation keep it from achieving its stated goal. Last comment, the app is a mirror of the browser version, so if you’re looking for a true app experience you won’t find it.

As one of the original “Spouters” who signed on when this app first took flight, I originally thought this app was a refreshing change from the bots and and negativity on Twitter/X. But the more the site grows, the clearer it becomes it is not much different than any other social media site.

The site feigns inclusivity at its core… but after spending 9 months there, I can assure you it is no different than other sites in that regard. The site is basically a Twitter/X inverse reality; where Twitter caters to the right, Spoutible caters to the left... and is no more tolerant of opposing views than the site they patterned themselves after.

It also lacks “star power” - there is very little big-name social celebrity presence, which also limits the experience somewhat.

As a “first wave” Spouter, I tried… I really did. But after 9 months, I finally got sick of having to defend my views and my Christianity (they’re not big on religion either), so I hung up my surfboard and hopped off their “wave”.

If you are a hard-left political junkie that hates religion, you may find this site palatable. Unless this is you however, I would not recommend.
Sorry, Christopher Bouzy - you had a great idea. Unfortunately, you can’t control human nature. But thanks for trying.
