How do you deal with shops that have more than one category?
a book store with a café
This is easy because the tags don't overlap.
shop=books
amenity=cafe
a café by day and a wine bar by night
I saw something like this before, and they are usually two businesses with different names. I used two separated POIs (points) placed in the same building area to denote them. In this way, I can also put different names, opening_hours etc to the two POIs.

Does Lemmy content get indexed by search engines?
One way to check is to do a search. e.g. for lemmy.world, google site:https://lemmy.world/

Oh, interesting. Is there a name for this?
I've heard there are tiny sculptures made for scraping mud off shoes. Didn't know it can be built into the entrance.

Is traditional Chinese fried rice considered an entre or a side dish?
Hong Konger (technically Chinese) here. We usually consider it a dish of its own. I myself used to order a fried rice, without any other dishes, as lunch all the time.
But keep in mind Chinese cuisines are traditionally shared by many people. There is little to no concept of entree vs side dish. It's common to order many dishes, including fried rice, put on a big table and everyone get everything a little bit.

Is there any way to have Youtube links open in browser instead of the Youtube app?
Use Newpipe. It plays youtube (and several video sites') videos without any ads nor trackings. No Google account needed.
Install it and set it as the app for opening youtube links in system settings.
Note that the app is not available in Google Play store. It can be installed from f-droid, or you can directly download its apk.

Kai Tak Airport - Major international airport closed in 1998 where planes literally almost crashed constantly due to right-hand turn over the city
I lived in Kowloon when Kai Tak Airport was still in use. We had planes flying super low above our place all the time everyday.
Here is a picture I found on Wikimedia Commons that illustrate how low were the planes.

It was very noisy as you can imagine.
The schools in Kowloon had air cons installed pretty early when air cons were still considered expensive and not very common among school buildings. It was necessary because the windows had to be closed for all time for soundproofing.

I didn't know that area is called mud room, though I understand it's the first place into indoor where you leave shoes.
Learned one more thing! Thanks!

There are still many other instances that accept signups, so I don't think temporally disabling lemmy.world signup will hurt lemmy.
However, having a popular client incompatible with a popular instance will annoy existing and new users.
