Ask HN: Have you made any interesting observations due to recent events?

Something I noticed, more people are enjoying the outdoors in my neighborhood. The past 2 years, I take about an hour walk nearly everyday. I've gotten to recognize the "regulars" who jog, walk and fish in the neighborhood ponds. I rarely ever had to "make way" for people on the sidewalk in the past two years. This past week, I don't want to say it's "packed". People are doing the whole social distancing thing. But families are out walking often. But there are multiple families in a field kicking or throwing a ball around, easily a dozen people fishing at any one time (use to only notice one person every few days) and a few dozen walkers/joggers. I mean, that's at least one good thing that's come out of this craziness. Hopefully it'll last for a while. Have you noticed anything interesting in people or your environment in general (positive or negative)?
