Unfortunately it's just something we have to live with. It has been like this forever, and not only on our street but many adjacent streets. We live in semi-rural Massachusetts. We try to not let it scare us from never going outside. So we walk our streets.... carefully. Hasn't been an issue walking along the streets.... yet.
Can't say the same thing about yard work though... I've gotten bit several times by PI just taking care of the lawn. Yes, I do mow over the PI that's along our lawns edge. I'm OK 99 times out of 100; but occasionally something goes wrong, lol.
The long press on community name isn't very discoverable for new users. I wouldn't know it existed unless I was following the changelog. Any reason why the actions aren't just added to the post's ellipses?
As someone living in the United States, I personally do not want to be on a US only instance. US is a burning pile of poop right now. Please save us
