Between that and “OMG is that gunfire?!” when it’s OBVIOUSLY a firework. What with the bright explosion and the fact that people don’t usually skip handgun firing and jump straight to grenade launching mortars.
Why not just start it here in Lemmy? I did for my City and a few people have already started to trickle in without any sort of advertising. The memes have already started to flow!
I was just trying to think of what I’d miss the most when I saw this. Yep, hands down it’ll be my local sub. We’re one of the smaller cities in my country which meant the sub reflected the quirks and experience of day to day life quite accurately.
Same. It was also very nice to know when stuff happened, like events or ask if anyone had heard anything about x. Some used it to ask question to know if they wanted to move here or not too which also gave me some insight in other parts of the city
Really going to miss my local subreddit.
We had a weekly rant thread and it was funny just seeing neighbors talk smack or bitch about silly little things.
For sure. My small city sub was hilarious. Always people asking “anyone know why there’s a helicopter flying over our city?!”
Ours was “Did you hear that noise??”
Every time it rained: “We need the moisture”
Denver?
“Anyone else see those lights in the sky?”
“Visiting soon! Any recommendations?”
“Is [broad area] safe?”

Sounds like a good thing to make on this side
Yeah, local subreddit and former college subreddit. Fun community, I’m sure something will be formed on Lemmy as well.
