Thinkin' about so-called third places (lemmy.world)

You may have heard of third places before, but in case it's new to you, they're essentially community spaces where you can chill & socialize...Like here, I suppose! But typically they refer to in-person community spaces.

Does your area of the world still have a number of these, or are they in the decline? Do you know if your in-person communities are trying to establish or renovate theirs to help people connect or reconnect with one another?

That's a fun idea! Would you have to get it okayed by your local gov first, or would it being a semi-regular temporary activity kind of it help it get by without that?

I think that it would be okay to not inform the local gov because would be temporary. That's usually the theme of tactical urbanism is just going out and doing the deed by yourself to show what it could look like
