I think it’s because the city has plans to stop being responsible for recycling collection after the provincial changes happening in 2025
Nice! Mixed feelings on this. Broom Factory was beautifully done and I’m sure it’s a net positive for housing issues that strikes a smart balance between the NIMBYs and the developers in the city to start focusing on more midrise projects. But the location is pretty undesirable for anyone who’s not a student. How about a few of these in areas where adult workers and families actually want to live? 😂
Haha, too bad you missed it but at least you got a wholesome story and a bike ride out of it.
Meals by Moms - Deli Sandwich Spot
Over by the 401 John Counter exit across from the City Place Office buildings.
Nice little “slept-on” spot for Deli sandwiches and breakfast. Sandwiches are similar to Golden Rooster.
Worth a stop in!
Memmy is beautifully designed, but I like Mlem a lot too. I’m going to keep both for awhile and see which one wins out. I confess to being a Reddit lurker and the third party apps always allowed me a way to seek useful information on the platform while sending a minimal amount of data back to the company. After all the recent API drama, I realized that I have to practice what I preach and try to be more than a lurker on platforms that I genuinely feel are better for our world and protect our personal safety/agency as citizens of the net. 100 subscribers is amazing and I hope to continue to play my small part to help the community grow. I tip my hat to you!
Lemmy Apps and On-boarding new Users to Kingstonontario
Is anyone else totally psyched to see two Lemmy apps finally out of TestFlight and available in the IOS app store??!! I downloaded Mlem and Memmy, and honestly feel like with these apps available there’s no reason not to switch to Lemmy. How do we spread the good word to Reddit users and bring some more folks over to the new and improved kingstonontario community?
I had no idea about Blues Brothers 2000! I love that movie. I saw Kick-Ass as well and never made the connection. I’ll have to watch some of these other ones. Also, seeing Tom Green do his street comedy in Kingston would be hilarious.
Can’t find the actual survey which was conducted by a rental listings company, but according to one source, the data was from Statistics Canada, and included the crime severity index, the non-violent and violent crime severity indexes, the crime-solving rate, as well as the number of citizens per police officer.
