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:
https://apps.apple.com/app/vota-restaurant-ratings/id6744969212

And here’s the Android version (finally live):
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.vota.app

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.

PCS Motorcycles

Has anyone bought a motorcycle here? I’m from out of state and they advertise on Facebook. Price is reasonable and not to the point of sounding like a scam but I want to verify it as best as I can. They list their address as 1015 S Franklin in Mobile. Google Maps make it seem that this is a warehouse. I would appreciate any input.

Cheapest cigarettes? Mobile/West Mobile, and Saraland

Hey.

I was using dip (smokeless tobacco), but recently switched back over to cigarettes after staying away since around 2019-2020.

I only smoke menthols. I prefer Kool Menthol 100s and Pall Mall Menthol 100s. Budget brands I enjoy are Pall Mall Select Menthol 100s and (L&M Menthol 100s. These aren’t that cheap anymore either though.) :(

A pack of Marlboro Reds/Newports were no more than $8 back then, which is still a lot. I was smoking $6-$6.50 packs of Marlboro Black Menthols, now you’re telling me that top brands are $10+??!!!

Where, in these 3 areas, has the cheapest per pack cigarettes? These $9-$10 prices are absolutely killing me!

Thank you all. God bless. 🙏

gate fixed at apartment and complex is demanding money per car for entry

We moved into this apartment a month ago and the gate has been broken. When we signed the lease we asked about the gate and a code for when it’s fixed, she said we’ll get one when it is and that it’s been down for a while. Now today they suddenly fixed it. We called asking about a code and they’re demanding we pay money for an access card basically and are refusing to give us a code. I looked into our lease and it says we should be given a gate code for “sole purpose of access to the premises.” No where does it say we must pay for an entry card or that we must pay for parking.

Is this even legal and how do I go about being able to get to my apartment. Ive had so many issues with this apartment in just a months time and I am NOT very fond of paying 30 dollars per car/person just for gate access when it very clearly states we should have a code (and we were told we would get one on day 1 when we signed the lease).

tldr: apartment finally fixed gate, now demanding us to pay ≈90 dollars total for access to the gate. refusing to give code which lease states we should have. how can I go about this

Any good dedicated newsletter and/or magazine for the Port?

Howdy,

As the title says, I have a vested interest in the happenings of the Port of Mobile, and things going on with the different shipyards there.
Is there any dedicated news letter or magazine that does news of it I could look into or subscribe to?

Family Court Judge Resignation

Does anyone know why Judge Sherman resigned without comment? I heard it was unethical conduct with another lawyer presenting in front of him. Not trying to start a rumor so it is unfounded to my knowledge but I know many who would like to know because their cases may have had unjustified rulings but the journalist in the lagniappe or news won’t touch it with a ten foot pole. A Pandora’s box for the family court system? Does anyone know what the law says about transparency around such issues? Can you imagine being on the losing end and finding that out, if it’s true.

Is it possible please to rent an apartment that doesn't have a roach infestation?

Is it possible please to rent an apartment that doesn't have an infestation of German roaches? I'm considering moving to the MS or AL coast, but apartment reviews for pretty much every complex complain about roaches. I know the humid South has problems with insects. Still I'd like to draw the line at cockroaches.

Low budget stoner comedy movie

Hey everyone. I have a script about a small town punk band who is trying to get a van. (Everything will change if they get it) It was heavily inspired by the righteous gemstones, so it's crude and silly. We follow the band through making merch and getting through their first few shows to build up enough money to get the van and go on tour. Things obviously aren't as easy as they think.

85 pages

There are 6 main characters, but around 22 in total. Mostly one off characters

Locations include 3 house show, one bar show, 1 church, 1 park, 1 garage, and 1 driving scene.

I have actually been working to make this film myself but the scheduling has been a nightmare. It would be nice if I could pay the actors to take time off from work.

Looking for about 10k
