About this app

Pickax puts people back in control.

Most platforms decide what you see using opaque algorithms designed to maximize clicks and control attention. Pickax works differently. There is no feed manipulation, artificial amplification, or hidden suppression.

On Pickax, you choose who matters, and what they share appears as they post it.

With Pickax, you can:
• Follow people, creators, and brands directly
• Explore a feed without algorithmic interference
• Share posts and read articles freely
• Watch and share Rumble videos seamlessly inside your newsfeed
• Verified accounts encourage real human interaction and reduce inauthentic activity
• Connect with and support voices you care about
• Advanced creator tools, including the Creator Dashboard and article publishing, are available on the Pickax website

Pickax isn’t about keeping you scrolling.
It’s about helping people connect on purpose.

Ratings and reviews

Early experience: UI is awkaward to put it best. No algo no bots ,but much more work to find the right people to follow, though not many users so. Not as open and flowing as i wished. Will probably close account. Nothing horrible but this is another SM app built for content creators more than exchange of information or social interaction, in my opinion. Very Stagnant, not for people that want to consume different media easily. lots of click profile "this is cool" follow or click profile "nah"

There is an initial bug on sign up that you have to resolve by putting your personal info in on the website to solve. The app is not sending notifications and even though you turn them on once you exit the screen it turns them back off. The community is fairly toxic if you are non Christian and comment on anything even if your point is a valid concern. An update I did get verified shortly after my original review so I'm changing it from 2 stars to 3. But there are concerns about the direction.

So far not impressed but I hope they continue developing to succeed As others said, janky UI but I DM'd support 4 days ago and haven't heard a word back. I also don't see them responding to reviews here for so few reviews so not the biggest dev team clearly. Jeff Dornik did respond to my DM say to DM support so partial points there! Few users, there's about a dozen people that pop up in my feed, one was a white supremacist who blocked me immediately on disagreeing with his rhetoric. YMMV.
