This was posted to HN a week ago but didn't get enough attention due to the weird title.

It's a map of all city council meetings in the US whose agenda mentions Flock

That post was literally the #1 story on HN for the entire day: https://news.ycombinator.com/front?day=2025-12-16.

It was on the frontpage for 25 hours. That's about as much attention as any thread gets - well above the 99th percentile.

you're right I misremembered. I still feel the enigmatic title of the post made it hard to realize its importance.

Maybe I'm just biased because it took me way too long to find it even with the algolia front-end

Yeah, finding it after-the-fact with search is not a trivial undertaking.

I do feel somewhat proud that an article with that title did so well on HN.
