But fuck this shit:
I want my zebra back, this is not visible from far away. And if I don't see a crosswalk anywhere nearby, then I shall cross the road anywhere convenient.
This I like:
This is the norm in some countries.
Bratislava's barely visible pedestrian crossings also tripped me the fuck out when I was there but then I realized you can actually cross wherever it's convenient because drivers are not out to kill you.
The traffic light is visible from far away and at a traffic light it's almost always possible to cross a road.
Are there images in your comment that other people are seeing? I don't see anything after your : characters except a few lines of white space.
Yeah. But Imgur blocks me because of my VPN, so I used Catbox. However Catbox is blocked in some countries.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Edit: From FAQ, blocked in/on/by: Australia, Ireland, UK, Iran, Afghanistan, Comcast, Spectrum, Rogers, Verizon, Quad9.
I can access catbox from the UK, no VPN. But videos hosted on it often won't show up on Connect(although they did until recently), so I have to view them via browser. I can see your images just fine.
Hmmm thanks for the info. I am in the US. It is probably just my Lemmy client, I'm using "Connect" fwiw.
