Mabuhay at maligayang pag-alis sa Lemmy! ✈️

An abandoned community for the Philippines and all things Filipino! 🇵🇭

Started out as a Reddit alternative during the blackout from Jun 12-21, 2023 with over 1k members in just a few days. Fizzled faster than the "I Didn't Do It" kid after a month until it became the internet's Centralia in less than a year.

My average travel time between work and home is usually around 30 minutes. Last night it took 2 hours; nearly an hour trapped at the Santolan U-turn and another from that U-turn to Ortigas. I half-expected the problem to be due to a higher volume of traffic going into Ortigas at the Ortigas flyover, but it was actually caused by an unusual volume at Ortigas ilalim; presumably to take either take a right turn to San Juan, or a U-turn to EDSA's northbound side. It's almost like an ouroboros.
