I know I should have probably looked this up before attempting to catch it so it’s my fault, but I spent like 30 bait trying to catch a pond smelt in a pond when it’s a common river fish

I'm not sure if this counts, but I remember being really frustrated early on because 99% of the ACNH guides online were for northern hem only. Finding a southern hem guide was pretty annoying, especially since we (with SH islands in-game, I don't live in the SH irl so I can't speak on their behalf) get snow and winter when NH gets hot weather and summer.
They are called pond smelt! XDDDDI know I should have probably looked this up before attempting to catch it so it’s my fault, but I spent like 30 bait trying to catch a pond smelt in a pond when it’s a common river fish
The way of obtaining fish bait totally sucks 
Collecting the manila clams is time consuming and the crafting is even worse, since there's no option for bulk crafting.
I wish fish bait was sold in Nooks cranny, along w/ the medicine and other items.
And I wish we could just buy it in 50x bulk because since when is 5 pieces considered bulk buying idk

I'm guessing they will give you one around the middle of December or something like that!
I'm time traveling so that's perhaps why they already gave me it.
I really wish Harv's house had the same layout as the player's house, or they at least let us choose the size of the rooms. My plan was to use it to plan my rooms, and it works great for the main room, but it's not great for the smaller rooms, and especially not for the upstairs or downstairs areas.
I have a room that I'm trying to do mood lighting in, and I have 7 wall lamps, a fireplace and a ton of candles, and it still looks SO dark, it's frustrating.
I took a screenshot to show as proof but weirdly it looks a lot brighter on my phone and is a nicer warmer colour. So I don't know if I'm complaining about the lighting or the Switch display lol.
In any case they need to really up the brightness of the light items, all those lamps in the dark just makes my house look haunted...

@Starboard Yeah, I find the mood/lamp lighting of this game really lackluster compared to NL :/ which really sucks given this game's bump in quality in other areas. I miss the purple Scorpio lamp, too, that one really carried a lot of my rooms.
And almost no couches. I can think of just 2 that could go in a realistic house. If I'm forgetting others it's because I've never seen them in my game because the RNG sucks.
And the kitchen furniture is even worse. For cabinets I can only think of the ironwood ones and that system kitchen item which I've never encountered in my Nook's Cranny. For the ironwood ones I had to get them off my friend since for months my kitchen just looked like a trash heap.

I wish we could just move rocks lol. We can already carry those garden rocks so why can't we just move rocks like trees.
I've been doing the mannequin thing for 2 months (although I stopped playing for like 1.5 months in between lol)...

I now have all 55 reactions (I think that's all that are available). It's nice to have so many possibilities but aside from the 8 on the frequently used wheel, there is no way I can access them quickly enough to have a conversation that includes them. I could change the wheel but you don't usually know in advance which ones you are going to need.
Do you have the NSO app? The chat function (which is already the best thing ever) also lets you use reactions, and you have access to all of your reactions there, so it's a lot quicker than selecting one in-game.
I do have NSO and use it sometimes. Unfortunately, I'm not very quick with it either but you are right, it's gotta be quicker than trying to use reactions with the game controller.
Day 5, still no snow.
if it makes you feel any better, i'm only getting snowflakes; none of them are staying on the ground yet

I think my main qualm with seasonal DIYs, especially the festive ones this month, is how late they actually start dropping, along with the mats required. I would like to start decorating for Christmas/Toy Day but the fact we have to wait until the 17th for the baubles is frustrating as someone who doesn't TT. like I understand we're waiting for the snow but yk, if I could start crafting now I would.
