I think its moreso that people in more rural/wilderness regions have far more reasons to use that type of app. Meanwhile some dude in the suburbs of LA is more likely using it out of boredom at best, basically the less general utility it has the less sane it gets.
Also, you can’t really advertise a “potluck” in a larger town. Randos are just going to come and grab food and leave.
The problem with Nextdoor is that you can’t exclude the angry loud people who detract from the neighborhood. For a real potluck, you just don’t invite them. Your friend group should not be open by default.
