Welkom op c/theNetherlands! Voor het delen van alles gerelateerd aan Nederland: nieuws, sport, humor, cultuur en vragen.

Titels van posts die linken naar een artikel dienen de onaangepaste titel van het artikel zelf te gebruiken.

Als je een nieuwsbericht post, is het daarnaast een goed idee er in een eerste comment je eigen mening over te geven. Dan geef je anderen alvast iets om op te reageren.

Hier gelden verder uiteraard de regels van onze instance:


Welcome to c/theNetherlands! For sharing anything related to the Netherlands: news, sports, humour, culture and questions.

Titles of posts linking to articles have to include the article’s title without alterations.

If you’re posting a news story, it’s also a good idea to give your own opinion in a first comment. Thereby you give others something to respond to. Note that the story has to be directly related to the Netherlands.

For the rest, the rules of our instance of course apply here:

I do like the current system actually. With it, you can not be pinned to your phone and would still hear the alarm. If I understand it correctly, now I'll be in danger if I don't have my phone on me at all times?

Same, but apparently more people do not notice the test alarms, than there are people that don't have their phone on them. So I guess that theoretically makes sense, although in my case the former feels more likely than the latter? Then again, if my phone's dead, I'll still often be around at least one other person with a working phone.
