How do I tell my neighbours the windows in their bathroom are not frosted enough? (self.asklemmy)

Neighbours recently had their home remodelled, which involved them putting new glazing in their bathroom. The glass is not frosted enough and there's a lot to see.

They are large windows too, starting at knee hight. How do I bring this up?

Bonus points if someone can tell me why this community keeps showing my subscription as pending.

Go there, ring the bell, tell them. The longer you wait the creepier that conversation is going to be.

Yeah exactly right. In a few weeks it's worse.

And when you do it, make sure you stare at them unblinkingly to assert dominance.

Bring a video.

Agree, it might seem an awkward conversation but if they're not idiots they'll realise you're looking out for them. You could leave an anonymous letter or something, but there is a good chance they'll guess it was you anyways.
