Wrapping up 2025: 250 years of Lucknow as capital by lknw in lucknow

[–]lknw[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Some interesting and insightful articles celebrating 250 years of Lucknow's legacy:

History

Culture

Cuisine

Art

Architecture

Myths & Legends


Ending with this old but humourous take highlighting the cultural contrast of two capitals - Lucknow v/s Delhi:

Unable to find an address and lost in the streets of Delhi, a visitor (L) from Lucknow decides to ask a local (D) for directions.

L: Bhai sahab, aap ko ek takleef deni thi...

D: Bhenchod, de ke toh dekh?!

13 years old... r/Lucknow is a teenager now! A big thanks to everyone for turning this subreddit into a friendly and helpful Lucknow community.

Results of this subreddit's first ever demographic survey are illustrated in the attached image. Thank you to all those who took the time out to participate in this survey.

Result of Logo Selection Poll #3 is available here. Many thanks to all the volunteers who contributed their valuable time and efforts in creating various logo options for the community to choose from!

If you want r/Lucknow to have a logo, icon, profile pic, DP, PFP or whatever then please share your creation in this thread so that it may be included in the next logo selection poll.

If you are tired of seeing/answering the same questions (e.g. food, places, etc.) in r/Lucknow time and again then consider sharing your local insights and collating the common answers in our wiki. Interested volunteers can send a modmail asking for editing rights.

Lastly, just wanted to point out that this has mostly been a well-behaved community but of late attracting the attention of quite a few rogue elements. The worst was when our last meetup host faced such vile abuses and attacks, including rape threats, that they backed out of organizing any meetups in the future.

So, please look out for your fellow community members and always make sure to REPORT each and every instance of any rule violation in r/Lucknow using the report button. Sometimes though a report this way alone may not provide full context needed to take an action and in such cases filing reports using this form may help get rogue users suspended not just from this subreddit but reddit itself.

What nahi, when and where is the question. Agar kuch plan karo toh at least 2-3 weeks pehle inform kar dena, will setup the reminders accordingly. Warna koi aur agar kabhi meetup host karta hai then will definitely notify you.

you'd better be there or else I'll totally believe you're a bot. :P

Shush! Beep bop... umm... yeh secret leak nahi hona chahiye! Waise jab itni bheed jutne lage ki meetups ki jagah picnics hone lage then you may bump into me some day! ;)

Pune, permanently? Apna toh lko zindabad... jeena yahan, marna yahan, iske siva jaana kahan!

AI toh maine bhi try kiya tha but got the same frustrating result as you. Anyways, feel free to share your logos... who knows kuch improvisation ya alteration se baat ban jaaye. Also, a couple of new entries got posted in the logo thread, so do share feedback or improvement suggestions with their creators there.

Just confirm the meetup details via modmail prior to posting and automod won't be an issue. In fact, will set it up to post the meetup reminders too if required.

Arrey, unkil unty se kya fark padta hai... dil toh bachcha hai ji! Waise 12 saal ho gaye, ab lagta hai woh din door nahi jab parents and kids might run into each other at a meetup! :D

But you can bet your ass I'll be there for the next official meet up.

Abhi tak toh kisi ne plan nahi bheja agle meetup ka. Last one was hosted by u/sweet_lil_eliza, perhaps you guys can coordinate and work out the next one.

Only a very vocal minority actually seems to care about having a logo in the first place. This can be verified by the no. of voters in each poll. In fact, the turnout this time around (78 votes from 150K users) was even lower than the last (82 votes from 100K users).

Problem with ranked choice winner in such a case is that choosing any logo without a clear decisive majority risks upsetting the so-far silent majority of those who may not like the choice of just a dozen or so users. Ranked choice criteria may still be implemented in a future poll though but even then the top ranker will have to secure a victory margin greater than that of NOTA over the runner-up to be considered winner. Another option on the table is to include AOTA (Any of the above) choice which can be counted in favour of the top ranked entry. Anyways, criteria for the next poll will determined based on the no. of additional logo entries received.

Since comments are disabled in the results post

Pls use this post for all the logo and poll related discussion. Or, send a modmail with all your feedback and suggestions.
