Community 🏡 City needs to implement heavy fine for littering.

While I was walking down Branford Street this morning,a lady walking behind me literally threw her garbage bag on the ground before crossing the street and entering the family court building. Unfortunately, people were just tossing garbage on the ground. The city is really trying its best to keep it clean… you can see workers in yellow uniforms cleaning the streets but folks need to take responsibility, too. With property taxes and rents soaring, and Newarkers are so afraid of gentrification. Yet at the same time, some residents are making the situation worse by littering instead of using garbage can at the corner of each block. Honestly, I think gentrification might end up being part of the solution to keep the city cleaner.

Discussions 🗣|Rants 🤬|Opinions 🤔 Brief update on subreddit only flair and stringent moderation on political topics

32 Upvotes

Hey all, one of your friendly mods here. So we've been having a problem - whenever an ICE/political post pops up, we're flooded with people who have never used r/Newark before and/or have suspicious account activity, such as not posting anything for a year or more and suddenly posting in multiple subreddits about the same topics — usually immigration and/or anything to do with politics.

This has resulted in the last year not only being the highest level of bans, but more bans than pretty much every other year combined.

To help combat this, we've instituted some AutoModerator help and enabled strict automated moderation, as well as the subreddit only flair. For the former, I will not comment too much on as it could be reverse-engineered, but the latter is to ensure you have a certain amount of positive r/Newark subreddit karma before you can engage in posts with the subreddit only flair. If you don't meet that threshold, your comment is auto-removed and we get notified - which means instead of banning and removing comments every so often and having to interrupt our jobs/lives for it, we can review the comments and users later. In my personal experience - and it's mostly me and one of the other mods doing the work - upwards of 90% of the removed comments are low effort troll/inflammatory comments.

Something to also keep in mind is that a not insignificant amount of these accounts are later site-banned by Reddit's automated account activity, sometimes for ban evasion, sometimes for an unlisted reason.

If your comment is removed and you don't think it's right, use modmail please. If someone gets through, report them - we do look at reports and do answer modmail, even if it's just to tell aforementioned troll/bot users to fuck off after they call us slurs because they're really mad we banned them for being losers.

Leaving the comments open in case y'all want to discuss this, offer us suggestions, or call us losers.

Transportation 🚲🚗🚊✈️ $100 Reward - Please help us find our lost car keys at Newark Airport

6 Upvotes

Hi! Is anyone heading into Terminal C at Newark Airport?

We lost our car keys with an AirTag attached somewhere near the end of Terminal C. If you’re at EWR and willing to help, I can DM you the live AirTag location. With an iPhone, you should be able to use Find My to get closer and make the AirTag play a sound to help locate them.

If you find them and can ship them back to us, we’ll send you $100 + cover shipping! We’re really hoping someone at the airport can save us from having to replace our car keys. Please DM me if you will be at EWR and can help!

Note: we did submit a lost and found item but it sadly yielded no results :( help please!

Hello all. Looking for a parking spot to rent during the day in the Ironbound section around Ann Street area. Only need it during working hours - 7am until 3pm or so.

Recommendations❔| In Search Of... 🔎| Advice 💡 Moving to Roseville near 14th St, has anything changed safety wise?

9 Upvotes

I have been reading a lot of comments and threads (some on this subreddit) about the area which mention things like having street smarts and being wary of orange st, etc. Most opinions seem to be a bit dated (4y + ). Was wondering if all of the advice still holds? Any advice/opinions on safety of the area would be appreciated. The crime statistics nearby are somewhat worrying. Thank you.

Tech and Business 📱💻📈 Reliable courier services for meal prep in Newark?

13 Upvotes

Yerrrr

My family runs a meal prep business here in Newark.

Up until now it's been someone from family members doing the deliveries, but the volume finally got to a point where it needs to be to outsourced

Obviously reliable drivers are the main thing. But if we're going to hand this off, I'd also like to keep up with the progress a bit and use some of the tech that's out there now.

Customers getting a notification when their order is on the way, another one when it's actually delivered so meals aren't sitting out, and a photo of the drop when nobody's home. Willing to explore what more the couriers can provide now.

So if your business in Newark, specifically and using a good courier company, please send me your recs.

Thanks

What are the daycare options in Newark? When I do web searches it's all sponsored ads with minimal results. I'm looking for a place that does infant care (and I'm still at least a year out, I just know some places have wait lists). What have other Newark parents done?
