2. I actually got sexually assaulted on Brainly. I'm 12 and the guy who sexually assaulted me is 19. I feel disgusted because I thought it was supposed to be a learning environment. But I guess I was wrong.
3. People are sending links to "hot and s*xy girls" google meetings and stuff.
What every you do, do NOT get Brainly. It's not worth it. Trust me. If I can give this website 0 stars, trust me, I would.
While me and others use Brainly.com to better grasp our source material and better understand our learning, this service is poorly moderated and abused by cheaters. Cheating does not help others learn, and Brainly is partially responsible for this type of behavior because they do not have real guidelines or standards enforced. Brainly.com should allow students to access UNLIMITED information without having to pay them, and instead like Quizlet, use their "Plus" service to allow benefits, not simply lock away valuable information.
For the meantime, students should check out more reliable websites like Quizlet.com.
Users are asked to sign up using Facebook or Google. This is immediately a red flag. This suggests collusion between Brainly and those unscrupulous entities to whom your data is a commodity.
The site itself is a zoo. Anyone no matter their lack of qualifications can answer questions.
If you sign up and answer questions, then Google and FB have access to your search history and other preferences.
My only regret here is that there is no option to give zero stars, or 'minus' stars.
2. The moderators and the verified users. Whoever made Brainly probably got all of their friends and invited them to become a moderator or verified user. Do you know how there are verified answers? Even THEY are wrong. I've come across many verified answers, and they were at least 1 or 2 stars. And for the moderators, they like to abuse their power to a level higher than the highest level. When you answer a question, and it's a real answer with a good explanation, they delete it. And if you ask a real question, NOT SPAM, they delete it. If you write a question exposing them, they'll delete it asap. So if you contact them, you'll never get a response.
3. The dumb ads. There are so many ads on there that block some of the questions. If you're not a part of the website (a user), then they'll blur the answer and ask you to watch ads. After you watch the ad and you accidentally click on a user profile and go back, the answer is blurred again so you have to watch more ads. And the website literally BEGS you to join premium so they can take your money with no refunds. When you use an ad-blocker, a message pops up saying something along the lines of "We noticed you're using an ad blocker. We know, you didn't come here for ads. But enabling ads helps us give you more access to Brainly! Please consider whitelisting us!" and there's a button, "YES, I'LL WHITELIST BRAINLY NOW". "Helps us give you more access to Brainly", huh. It doesn't change a thing with or without ads. You just want more money. So the notification keeps popping up on the top of the screen, but you'll get used to it.
4. How desperate are they for money? A lot. More than the word itself. Here are the ways they attempt to persuade you. Number one, they keep hassling you to join premium every single time they make you watch an ad. Two, they want you to disable your ad blocker so that they can get that "ka-ching"! Three, if you join premium and cancel soon after, you don't get a refund so they just take your cash and get on with it. Four, they try to be "relatable" in their ads with their tone of voice and word choice.
Don't use the website. Don't download the app. Don't get premium. And lastly, just don't do Brainly. It's like selling your soul to the devil, as another reviewer said. This is all by my experience, but if you want to use it, that's all on you.
Why does this even exist? It's literally just a way for some kid who wants to avoid their work and not get smart to go online, type in a question, and immediately get the answer.
Second question.
The site is way too easy to "hack" or trick into thinking you are answering a question, but just typing a random phrase long enough to be seen as an answer, and you still earn the points.
Third question.
Who even thought of the site and why?
