Lemmy gets it; on BlueSky there were far too many people being all "but they were dirty tho" when they're really just mixing it up with Late Renaissance / Early Industrial. London was practically unlivable!

At least into the early modern period they restored the understanding that cleanliness was good, just had a harder time achieving it XD
