Hi,
we’re four guys, and we’ve put together Westminster’s restaurant scene in an app called Vota. The concept is simple: you see two places side by side (for example Famille vs. Kachina Southwestern Grill), you choose the place you’d rather go to, and the ranking updates instantly. The more people vote, the more accurate the list gets over time. There are still a few duplicates here and there, but I’m continuously cleaning up the data.

Here’s the iPhone version, with categories that actually fit Westminster’s food scene:

And here’s the Android version (finally live):

P.S. I’m not from Westminster (I live in Gothenburg). I’m not collecting data, not selling anything, and the app does not use AI-generated content. I’m posting in a few different subreddits because we now support more regions, and I genuinely want honest feedback from people who actually know the area.

I didn’t notice these markings a few days ago, but today I saw them in multiple places around Almere.
They highlight bumps, edges, potholes and other spots to watch out for on the cycling paths, and I thought it was a really nice and useful improvement.
Not sure if this is done by Gemeente Almere, a contractor, or volunteers, but whoever is behind it: thank you. It genuinely makes the paths safer and easier to ride.

ik hoorde net 2 korte soortvan boot toeters uit het luchtalarm komen van ongeveer 1 seconde met een tussentijd van ongeveer 5 minuten. heeft iemand anders dit gehoord? ik zit in Almere Buiten, hoorde dit helemaal rondgaan door de hele buurt en vraag me af wat dit was? dit gaat om 3 Oktober 2026 rond 20:45

Ik denk dat het gaat om een "Luchtalarm geluidstoon: Technisch Test Alarm" zoals te horen in deze video:
