(Hint: It’s Not Ads)

Most so-called community apps aren’t built for people—they’re built for profit. You know the type. They ask for your location before they’ve even said hello. They flash you full-screen ads for something completely irrelevant, just as you’re trying to report a lost dog. And if you’re lucky, buried under the popups and promotions, you might find the feature you actually need.

That’s not a community. That’s a marketplace wearing a friendly name tag.

What Should a Community App Do?

At its core, a community app should do one simple thing: make life a little easier for the people around you. There should be no fluff, no distractions, just the right tool at the right moment.

Whether finding a local electrician, sharing a freecycle item, or reporting a pothole—community apps should be invisible helpers. They shouldn’t demand your data, attention span, or sanity.

Why Ads Are the Opposite of Community

Every second you spend swiping away a popup is a second you’re not helping your neighbour. Every tracking pixel is a little chisel, chipping away at trust. And every unnecessary click is a moment someone gives up and walks away.

Ads aren’t just annoying—they’re disruptive by design. They’re meant to interrupt. In a setting where clarity and speed matter—like finding a missing pet or responding to a local emergency—ads aren’t just irrelevant; they’re irresponsible.

The COJU Way

At C’mon Joiners (COJU), we build apps that put people first—quietly, reliably, and without the nonsense.

• No ads

• No tracking

• No upsells

Our apps don’t shout. They don’t interrupt. They don’t turn your neighbourhood into a revenue stream. They just do the job they were designed to do—cleanly, efficiently, and respectfully.

Why We Rely on Membership, Not Marketing

We ask for a small monthly membership because it keeps us accountable to you—not to advertisers or algorithms. It allows us to build tools you actually want, not what ad networks are willing to pay for.

The cost of a monthly coffee from real people builds more useful tools than a million ad impressions ever could.
