Love seeing older ladies in here! Mine isn’t this old yet but love my lady cat as she starts to get a little older and wiser.

When you say car camp, do you mean like in an RV? Or "glamping"?

If it is just the essense of travelling and sleeping with minimal stuff in your car, then there are some places up in Manistee National Forest where I have done exactly that as well.

Seems like this is a great spot based on the suggestions! Will definitely consider a trip out there this year then.

I don't mind memes and stuff like that at all. I would agree with @KingStrafeIV@midwest.social, once the memes and stuff get out of hand it can start to drown out useful conversation.

I say post and let people decide what they want to see. If we see some backlash then we can start to reign things in or modify as needed. "Meme Mondays" or something of the sort is a good, contained way to still have them be present.

I would have to agree. All the wilderness that is out there along with changing environments and terrain really makes for some amazing scenery as well as places for wildlife to really blossom.

Love it! Even though I am not from there they play a big influence in the midwest area, and are one of the nicer areas for camping I have found so I go there often.

Would love to see input on info from the area from locals so hopefully they also join.

This is in relation to the Chicago /c/? If so, may still be posting some things that can be seen as political but mostly to keep people informed.

An example would be something like the Chuy Garcia post of mine, since the FTX scandal was pretty large and it is interesting to know that it is tied back to our city somehow.

But feel free to post any content you would like as well!

Have you reached out to anyone else who runs a Lemmy server and seen if they are also experiencing this?

Do you think it is a bottlekneck or just due to large updates from other servers?

Yo, just some dude who lives in Chicago and likes open source stuff and wanted to move to a reddit alternative. Love all different types of stuff as long as it's new and interesting.
