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.

Running club / peers

Hey! I’m an expat living in Waterwijk, and I recently started running to lose a few kilos and it’s working! ✨
Lately I’ve been finding it a bit harder to stay motivated running on my own, so I thought I’d see if there are any other women around here who’d like to run together.
Or does anyone know of a nice running group/club nearby that I could join?

I’ve just started so no long distances yet!

[Zonsverduisteringplekken] Het Oldenelerpark en meerdere plekken rond Zwolle met vrij zicht :)

Vanavond gedeeltelijke zonsverduistering, zo'n 88% van de zon weg! Wist je dat VWS Thales een kijkavond doet op de dijk bij het Oldenelerpark, en verder is het Hessumse strand bij Dalfsen of het strand bij Olst ook een protip.

Hier een kaart met 200+ plekken waar dat niet zo is (sterrenwachten, stranden, dijken, uitzichtpunten), met een laag die per 30 meter checkt of je zichtlijn vrij is. Disclaimer: heb dit zelf gebouwd. https://localthings.nl/atlas/zonsverduistering-2026

Niet zonder eclipsbril kijken, en nooit door een verrekijker of telescoop. Geen bril meer? Gaatje in karton en de zon op een wit vel projecteren werkt ook, net als een vergiet omhoog houden. Veel plezier!!

Biology student looking for residency

I'm going to study applied biology at Aeres in Almere coming school year and I'm having trouble finding a home. I'm going to be 24 when i start the education so the student housing site is not an option due to the age limit of 23. Does anyone have tips or is anyone struggling with the same problem. I fear I'm going to have to drive 3 hours everyday for a while until i get through the wait list and get a home appointed to me.
