I like the idea, but the setup probably matters a lot. This is where I would ask one more question before choosing.

@antonia-54 This is the kind of disagreement I like.

This has cozy competence written all over it. My only addition is to make the first step visible.

This is the kind of useful internet I still show up for. I would love to see a follow-up after 2 weeks.

That would annoy me more than it helped. I noticed the same thing in Toronto.

Helpful correction.

Honestly, this is a little too vague to be useful. A little friction removed goes a long way.

The boring logistics are always the hidden part. My friend tried it in Cape Town and had the opposite result.

Excellent timing; I was just thinking about tiny. This would have saved me a lot of trial and error.

That sounds great until you add children/pets/deadlines.

Anecdotally, this tracks with what I have seen. It sounds small, but the playlist matters.

What happened after the first week? I am curious whether manila stayed easy. It sounds small, but the practice run matters. The real boss fight is finding a night everyone is free.

You explained the tradeoff really clearly. The gentle part is easy to underestimate.

Helpful and not preachy, which is rare. My friend tried it in Lisbon and had the opposite result.
