Hello HN! We're a small team in Kyoto building a website called dédédé (https://dedede.de/en) that invites people to share the various positives, negatives, oddities, etc. they find in urban spaces.
The project grew out of an earlier effort where we'd built an app that assisted participatory urbanism workshops run by local nonprofits. With the new platform, we're trying to build something similar but more casual and hopefully with broader appeal, that'll be fun to use even outside of formal workshop situations.
We'd love to hear your thoughts!
Technical note: I am using FF on Linux, and needed to go to google translate to be able to read the site. The main page [1] loads with images, but when I click through, the images don't load on the detail pages [2].

OP here - just to let you know the signup form asks for an email address, but we're just using it as the user ID so a non-working address works fine.
EDIT: apart from one minor inconvenience, you won't be able to reset your password if you forget it
Love it, simple sentiment gathering. AI bots are going to love to crawl that one ;)
Incidentally while exploring this site I discovered how much better the highlight and "translate" feature of iOS has gotten!
Thanks kappasan!
feels a lot like a pattern language! I'd love for your site to catch on in my neck of the woods.
Huh I vaguely remember hearing that term somewhere... will read up on it, thanks!
