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.

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.

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.

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.
