Following remote communities is hard.

I agree. Lemmy doesn't have to replace Reddit, it just has to be a working alternative.

Over time Lemmy may gain a much wider audience, but as long as it has enough users to be entertaining and informative, then it will be a good alternative to corporate social media.

How to deal with rats coming from neighbour's yard?

You are only going to have success with a physical barrier. Consider rat bait boxes, as well keeping up as the traps, but the rats must have a food source next door, so they will never be able to be eradicated by you alone. One rat will destroy your whole crop.

Make a cage out of coated chicken wire. It had to be a box shape, covered on the top as well, it also has to extend outward 1 foot on the ground from the base of the "box."

Visualize a cardboard box with the open side on the ground and the flaps extended on the ground.

Charging an EV Is Still a Nightmare: The biggest hurdle to mass adoption of electric cars is not the cars themselves.

This July I will have owned a Tesla Model Y for 3 years. Charging has never, ever, been an issue.

Plug it in when you get home. Use the navigation when you go on a long trip and it routes you through super chargers. When you are at a supercharger, go get a snack and use the restroom. Come back and you are usually ready to go.

If you live in an apartment or condo with no access to home charging and you don't have a charger near where you work, and there are no superchargers near you, then an electric car isn't for you, yet.
