Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.
As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.
Thank you and happy chatting!

While it’s not practical for everyone, we still do have non-motorized push mowers and rakes, which make a LOT less noise and work really well. Electric weed trimmers are also much quieter than the petrol-powered ones.
Who needs a push mower? I reap my grass with a scythe like my ancestors did.
My push lawnmower sounds like the chorus of the damned screaming for every blade of grass plucked from this mortal coil.
sounds like it might need some lubrication
A lot of people don't realize you should change your lawnmowers oil
The electric mowers are pretty quiet too. If I didn't have such a big area to mow I would strongly consider one of the plug in models, but also since no one lives within a mile of me I don't really have to worry about noise pollution either.
