I got my hearing professionally checked today and all is normal. But I have difficulty hearing people I am dining with, talking in restaurants. Is it me, or is the music just too damn loud?!

      Those scenarios can be solved. From “4-hour sofa slots are reserved for groups of three or more people” to “Sofas are reserved to 1-hour max.”

      In the end, as it is now, people are overstaying anyway.

        Let them. Either provide public spaces for people to just chill, or let them spend the entire day at a coffee shop after buying a coffee.

        I’m sick of this “pay-to-live” society we’ve built around us.

          I… actually agree with you. It would be nice to have a cozy indoors public space. Sort of like an “indoors park.” But you’ll have to yell at your city hall reps, not a small business owner who, like us, also has to make a living.

            If the city provided a nice public space, I would hallily just buy a coffee to go and then to chill there

        “Hey homeless guy, I’ll pay you 10 dollars if you get in line early at this store and claim the 4 hour sofa until my friends come a few hours later.”
