That’s good to hear!

I think if it gets to the level of extreme bass, that’s a completely different problem :)

As long as we’re not hearing each other day to day, and the occasional bursts or noise I’d be really happy with that.

I guess the 90’s and 80’s may have had some different building standards, but hopefully that amount of Noise Proofing still holds true for the 80’s houses too.

The house has double glazed windows. So hopefully that will help a little with the noise through the windows.

I was thinking of going a bit overboard with Gib Rail on top of the existing Gib Board, and then doing 2 layers of 13mm Noiseline Gib.

But then i looked more closely at the original building plans, and noticed how “solidly” it seems to be built currently, and thought about just adding an extra layer of 13mm Noiseline Gib directly onto the existing Gib? In essence, that would be two layers of gib (1x 10mm, 1x 13mm noiseline), battened 50mm off from the masonry.

Im my mind, I was thinking that would add that extra little bit of noise performance? Thoughts on this? I was thinking of keeping it relatively simple for now, and then if we are finding it lacking later on, we’d do the whole Gib Rail thing.

Cool, good to know!

Thanks for the insight - makes me feel better about the “noise-proofness” :)

I did quickly read an article this morning that said El Nino should now be coming into full effect. Should bring a bit of a drier spell hopefully?

Obviously overall engagement and the number of communities? (Equivalent of subreddits) is a lot lower, but hopefully there’s a bit of an increase in the coming weeks? Got quite a small community vibe to it at the moment, which is seeing me want to engage more in my “local” communities. Might be a bit of a Goldilocks zone in the coming weeks/months where there’s enough engagement, but not full on Reddit levels.

Yeap! Slowly finding my feet in this place, trying to find the equivalents of what I was subbed on before.

NoRamyunForYou, 10 months ago

Yeah, really enjoying the community type vibe going on around here. Feels more like you’re having a conversation with a group of people. Excited to see how it all goes

Haha, hopefully I stick around :) Yeah, that’s what brought me along to finally give it a go, as I was using Apollo.

NoRamyunForYou, 10 months ago

I’ve been using WefWef today as it’s based off of the Apollo app UI, and apart from a couple of bugs/wants, its been great so far 👍

That’s pretty cool! Total noob is this regard so I probably wouldn’t have even been able to do it myself haha

In this instance, what are the benefits of having if self hosted like this?

NoRamyunForYou, 10 months ago

No not yet. How are you finding it?

NoRamyunForYou, 10 months ago

Yeap, currently using wefwef.lemmy.nz that is hosted? by Dave here.

Actually I think I was mistaken. I think I was a bit thrown off by the fact that the NBA community has 2 subscribers, and so I dismissed it.

NoRamyunForYou, 10 months ago

Interesting. Thank you for clearing that up!

Ahh that community browser is so helpful. Really makes it a lot easier :)

Thanks for the detailed breakdown. Really appreciate the help in getting started out.

In places like Korea, multiple broadcasters show the same sporting events (with their own commentators etc). I wonder what the difference in broadcasting rights structure is between somewhere like that, compared to somewhere like NZ where one broadcaster takes the outright rights for an event
