Imagine you have a dam. Fish want to get through the floodgates, but the gates are locked. You want to open the gates when a fish wants to pass through.

If you are a tech bro, you might say “we can use AI to solve this problem”

If you are the municipality of Utrecht, you instead say “what if we put a livestream of the canal on the internet and instructed viewers to push a button when they see one”

@eb I love this site. Now the water is starting to clear and today I saw a perch swim past.

@sejarnold I absolutely adore your enthusiasm :))

@sejarnold @eb You were perched in the right place at the right time

@eb
Awesome idea!
I hope no one abuses it and floods something by continuously clicking on it :(

I've been watching it for 30mins, but sadly not seen any fish yet.

The videos have subtitles in english, which is nice: youtube.com/@DutchWallFish

@chewie Don't worry! The site requires a number of people to press the doorbell before letting the gates open :)
