User Reviews

Show of Hands offers strong polling and open discussion features, with praise for its polls and engagement tools. However, reviewers repeatedly flag a toxic, partisan atmosphere, moderation issues, and sign-in/technical problems. The app shines for polling and conversation when moderation is not an obstacle, but its credibility and reliability are undermined by biases, safety concerns, and inconsistent support.
Pros
  • Free speech and open discussion with civil dialogue
  • Robust polling features with instant results and demographic/geographic breakdowns
  • Easy-to-use polls and engaging features (e.g., monthly introduction poll)
  • Ability to ignore disruptive users and curate discussions
  • Perceived fairness with minimal algorithmic filtering or shadow banning
Cons
  • Perceived political bias and toxic, hateful discourse with a leaning toward right-wing content
  • Moderation inconsistencies and uneven enforcement of rules
  • Safety concerns and presence of hateful content; not considered safe for kids
  • Login/account issues and weak support (sign-in problems, password resets, account creation)
  • Poll results not representative due to base skew / partisan audience

Filled with hate, violence and other evil things on this app

Have been on this off/on for years. It’s very active and all polls are completely topical to recent events, even as they happen. The polls are smartly designed to see results based on political affiliation, or non-affiliation. The complaints seem to be more from those on the “left” who generally believe that the opinions of the “left” should never be questioned or challenged. Those are the ones calling for censorship and moderation and for this to be more like Reddit, where only comments supporting the left’s views are allowed while all others are banned and silenced.
