Things That Changed on Nishitsu This Week

There were 2 things this week.

We changed the SNS links at the top of the smartphone pages to icons

We changed the links to Twitter, Facebook, and other social media at the top of every Nishitsu page into icons.

This↓

We’re also getting ready to do more video content, so we’ve linked YouTube too.

We’ll be sharing all kinds of Nishinomiya information through videos as well, so please subscribe to our channel!

We still couldn’t change the icon for the “Clap” feature at the end of articles (excuse week 5)

Continuing from four weeks ago, it’s this.

This thing we added to the end of articles four weeks ago↓

This icon.

We said we’d make it bigger, but we’ve left it untouched for 5 whole weeks now.

“I mean, this week was…” Nope, no real excuse. Yes.

The total number of claps this week was 75. Last week it was 89, so it’s been dropping for 2 weeks in a row!

We really need to feel some urgency here. Next week, we want to declare our decision to make the icon bigger.

Tips We Received This Week

This week we received 22 tips! Thank you for sending in so much information!

Most of them were about takeout and temporary closures, along with various other updates!
