Tribel Reviews: Is it a Secure Social Network?

2. I have been on Tribel for a while now. I have voiced my issues with the very things that plague every social media site.
   I voiced them and many ways, through humor, through directly addressing the culprits and through posting moderate observations. Yes, it is filled with narcissistic people, who need to dominate the conversation, people who are just there to fulfill a need to be noticed by accumulating those pesky stars (kindergarten behavior) and boasting as many followers.
   There is a tendency to just follow anyone to get a follow back. There is a tendency, like on FB, to swarm the site with memes that have been copied and pasted a million times already. Certain trendy memes collect hundreds or thousands of likes!
   Sometimes it feels like if one sheep bleats a whole herd of sheep responds. There are the super star contributors who seem to have only one purpose in life, to post memes all day and collect stars and followers. But… the good thing is you can block all those small minded morons. The people you surround yourself with may be a smaller group. Also good is that you can pick and choose among various themes.
   No, it’s not the golden solution to our social media woes, but it beats FB in many aspects, despite its yet unresolved technical issues such as too small typeface when editing, or oversized images or still lack of advanced messaging levels.
   Many people will annoy you, MAGA trolls appear frequently like mean little school bullies trying to disrupt, spit hate and mockery, the usual. Yes, it seems like a mainly left alternative, but that is only because America is mainly extreme capitalistic. What appears as left in America is only moderate in Europe. That also addresses the great problem that this site is yet really only an American centered outlet, and as usual, Americans society are navel gazers, in the believe their culture, there limited views of the real world is all there needs to be. That is the sad part! Maybe it will become more international, possibly not!

4. No republicans is always a plus!!

   1. Good place for self-righteous hate-filled leftists. Makes Facebook seem fair and balanced.

      1. Well said.

      2. poor snowflake get back to your Klan app TRUTH SOCIAL or is it PARLER?

      3. Says the self righteous hate filled Trumpublican… we are glad when you don’t troll us, because anytime that happens, it’s like a bully enters the playground! No, of course we don’t like you, why would we? Why would we like anything that has already been exercised by the fascists in Europe 77 years ago. It’s just starting a new popularity among those who have either forgotten, or never learned the lessons! But alas, history tells us that this rise of a certain evil happens every 70 to 100 years. Maybe one day humanity matures enough to avoid these trouble spot that cause so much suffering, wars and hate from prejudiced people. Maybe one day, humanity will be able to resist the rise of narcissistic political leaders who exploit the disgruntled masses for their own insane purpose!

   2. Just wondering if Tribel informs you that you have already posted that post so you know that you have already posted it before? Thank you.

5. Saving edits to posts hangs in forever loop, no error handling, rank amateur, waste of time. Too buggy to use. Nobody’s tested this at all, it would seem.

6. Filled out sign-up info. Asked for verification number that was never sent to my e-mail. Would not allow me to re-send code. Now in limbo because I cannot re-create an account because my e-mail address is already used on initial attempt to sign up. Should be addressed. Are you paying attention and attempting to fix problems?

7. The Tribel app won’t even install on my Samsung Android S9.

   1. I had no problem installing it on my Motorola android. And I use Mcafee LiveSafe protection against hackingg, spam, and so on.

8. I joined Tribel a few days ago. I find it the most left-leaning social media site I’ve ever seen. I have not yet seen a single Conservative post.

   1. That’s a huge pro.

      1. No conservative voice? Just like minded on one app?
         I want to rumble, I want my opinion to be heard by those who may disagree.
         I like discussion.
         No thanks sticking with Twitter.

      2. Yes Indeed!

   2. It’s about time the left had a voice in the social media universe without being drowned out by the lies and propaganda on the other sites! It is much less toxic and unlike FB and Twitter, the users simply ignore those they disagree with instead of threatening them with violence. It is literally a breath of fresh air for those that have not succumbed to the cult think of the MAGA movement.

   3. Duh! What do expect from the answer to Trump’s, “UnTruth Social”..?

   4. Well that sure is a plus!!

   5. Excellent! Now Twitter users will have somewhere to go after Elon Musk destroys it….🙄

      1. Exactly why I joined Tribel!

   6. that’s funny
      just signed up and the very first post I saw was from Lauren Boebert!

   7. It’s full of hate and threats of violence, one post that’s not been taken down says “ So what do we [do] about lindsay Gramme?,” wrote one user in August about Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC). “The scum sucking piece of hillbilly shit is calling for riots… McConnell too. Investigate his chinese asset wife for colluding with china and trading state secrets. Skanky fucking bitch needs to rot in a cell too, for life.” Another user commented, “These mother fuckers are terrorists and should be shot.”. Will be reported to google and apple for sure, it’s against the TOS

   8. I did find that to be true. So disappointing.

   9. That is why you can join Trumps personal site Truth…. You can pursue your own little truth. It’s just, even though limited, effort to establish something beyond the extreme capitalist, exploitive, pure American centered navel gazing view of reality. We, at least I do and many others on that site, we try to establish a sense of empathy with anyone who suffers under those above mentioned maladies of human behavior.

9. I joined a few days ago with the idea that I could customize my feed and preference, not to meet men (I’ve had the same man for 40 years, I certainly don’t need another). Yet I only seem to be receiving messages and friend requests from men – messages and friend requests that smell like an awful lot like “phish”. I posted this same message on my feed, let’s see if it works. Had the same problem on LinkedIn for a while – who the heck thought THAT was a good way to meet women? I’ll give it some time…

   1. Hi there. I just signed up yesterday and already i have 6 men sending messages. I didnt know this was a dating app. Im going to delete this app. No thx. Not needing a man.

      1. It happens to every female. I ignore them and block them. Don’t give up yet. It really is a good app if you are like minded. These creepy incel bastards need to be blocked so they go away. I never look at my messages but will go in to block them eventually.

         1. Agreed; as a man, my only followers on Twitter have been (allegedly) single females. Married, don’t care, lol.

   2. LOTS of people are using LinkedIn to find a partner. I was also kind of surprised to hear this…
      God Bless, and Namaste…

   3. I had to laugh when I read your post (…I certainly don’t need another..) you obviously don’t have the best view of men it seems. Look do what I do, check what the person posted on his site other than chasing women. I am an old guy, still get the “Hi how are you” and usually discard or block. Women have bad opinions about men in general because of the immature men they have let into their lives! Believe me, it’s the same the other way round!

10. At this point … It’s refreshing to see something other than the clickbait and disappointing posts that let me know my friends and family aren’t who I thought they were. I’m tired of seeing what baffles me in people I thought I knew so well.
    I deleted all my other social media accts because I’m literally fed up. I don’t need mirror feedback, I just came here looking for open minds and hearts. An alternative to pigeonholing mega-media sites … Be real.
    Just Be Real.

11. I haven’t had any trouble signing in. Enjoying the app so far

12. I signed up yesterday. I filled all the categories including vegan and vegetarian. Guess what the first three posts that appeared in my feed…
    The first was butchering a cow, the second butchering pork, and the third was butchering lamb.
    My first impression is that Tribel is KraP.

    1. People do what they do! Face the reality that there are butchers hunters killers! What did you expect? Live by example.
       It is immature to react. You think of yourself as an advanced human being? Just the label “I am a vegetarian” is just that a label. You whine like a child! Do something, live an exemplary life, for once! Start!

13. I’m accessing Tribel on an iPad. The images fill up the whole screen. I can’t find how to make them smaller. I feel like I’m in the front room at a movie.

    1. My problem is the opposite. I signed on on my iPhone and the font is so small that I can not read it and no way to increase it. The iPhone has a font size adjustability but it does not work on Tribel.

14. No problem signing in but I have been bombarded with friends request. It feels as if I would be in a dating site. I can control that but makes you wonder how safe it is

15. So far in the previews, not having signed up yet, all I see is political memes bitching about republicans and how their posts are censored on FB. Oh And the boring “I just joined!” posts. I have a strong feeling they are giving me a blue feed and not showing posts by conservatives. It doesn’t look like anyone is having fun. Too damn boring to draw my interest.

    1. True. it is not for Trumpies or Nazis.

       1. It’s for hate filled far left lunatics. Here’s some posts from the site

          So what do we [do] about lindsay Gramme?,” wrote one user in August about Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC). “The scum sucking piece of hillbilly shit is calling for riots… McConnell too. Investigate his chinese asset wife for colluding with china and trading state secrets. Skanky fucking bitch needs to rot in a cell too, for life.” Another user commented, “These mother fuckers are terrorists and should be shot.”

          Definitely going to mass report to apple and google

    2. THIS SITE IS A JOKE

    3. Sounds like you may prefer the Parler app.

    4. From the people of Occupy Democrats, so it’s to be expected.

    5. That’s a huge pro.

    6. Exactly. Not as advertised. It is doing nothing to change the rhetoric. You may have an issue with this if you’re a moderate. Seems to lean far left. Just republican bashing.

    7. It is a liberal social media site. If you are like minded you will have a great time. If not you can join Truth Social where you might feel more comfortable.

16. I signed up last week and haven’t had any problems. I like that I can select the audience for posts.

17. I’d wanted another social network, I had become tired of Meta and FB. Tribel has turned out to be frustrating! Tiresome request for password and still not gain access to my account.

    1. Because I live in far away Montana, my email is slow and I never receive the verification number in time to enter it before it is timed out. Very frustrating!

18. I had nothing but problems signing up, and getting past needing verification codes and get stuck in a revolving door syndrome several times. After a while I just gave up

19. Tribel’s been great for the hubs & I from the get-go. No issues registering, signing in, etc., since first coming on board about a month ago now.

    We love the content and engagement. Bye Facebook and thanks for the memories 😊

20. I have tried many times to sign into Tribal but it puts me in a revolving door looking for my password and the third authorization. I have android. Hope this gets fixed. Have seen others with the same issues. Let me know when it is cause I would love to switch from Fb.

    1. Trying to sign up but keep getting request for Verification code which isn’t working. What’s up with that? Is Tribel even legit?

    2. So as a 74 year old Android user, I might have trouble with Tribel? I’ve been trying to get it on my Kindle.

       1. Why do you think it is necessary to tell the world your age? Nobody cares.

          1. That’s the sort of comment unwelcome here. Just be respectful and kind.

          2. God Bless, and Namaste…

    3. I signed up without issue on a laptop.
