minus-squareObi@sopuli.xyzlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·1 month agoThere’s no change of “unit” when going from km to m or ml to L, etc. It’s just the next “size” up or down, we immediately know 500m is half a km.
minus-squarericecake@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 month agoI know it’s not actually a unit change, but in my head there’s a resistance to changing the scale. If one sign says 5km, I expect the next sign to say 0.5km, not 500m.
