Saw your comment just now. Upon further reading, I also posted another article from BBC that provides what is perhaps a more objective view about the flooding. One does have to wonder, of course, how much of the information is controlled by the authorities.

As for how it relates to prepping, well, isn’t getting ready for the effects of natural hazards (and the disasters that can be an aftermath of these) related to prepping?

Thanks for the lead.

Maybe also because of the learning curve. Those who find to bothersome to set up accounts on their preferred instances will just give up and stick to whatever toxic platform they’re currently using. In other words, I’d like to think of fediverse users as smarter than most.
