Some. Not all.
Not all pubs are drink first. Food and socialising are also important things.
In rural areas it might be the only ‘communal’ space.

Still do.
I’ve been alcohol free since 7th April 2023 but it’s a stop on the way home to see mates that don’t game online.
UK pub that’s part of the community. We organise canal cleans / litter picks / quiz nights / charity events etc…
Pubs can be good and you don’t HAVE to drink booze. Bars now… They are a different story I feel.
On a side note I feel the ability to ‘legally’ drink (without a meal) from the age of 18 stops a lot of the idiotic drinking stuff I always hear about from over the pond.

Well-done-you

Some of us like (and play with) both systems - both are fun and have their individual pros and cons.
as a side note nothing is paywalled off in meshcore however there is a soft lock (10 second wait) for some bits. Not saying I like / agree with it but worth mentioning its not a hard pay wall.

They can’t claim it’s obvious bullshit

The fines go direct to central government rather than local.
UK isn’t as car centric as US and we have a (not great but better than US) public transport system.
- Comment on Scientists reportedly hiding AI text prompts in academic papers to receive positive peer reviews 4 months ago:
Last year the journal Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology drew media attention over the inclusion of an AI-generated image depicting a rat sitting upright with an unfeasibly large penis and too many testicles._
I must admit that made me laugh a little.
