I'm from Amish country. I had to listen to adults wail about it standing for "After Christ Devil Came". I couldn't control my laughter even at age 5.

To be fair, AC/DC does, in fact, rock.

Happening across the country, including smaller cities too. For example, City of Reading lost McDonalds downtown a few years ago (don't know exactly when; google and Bing are terrible - can't find anything despite articles about it back then) that had been there for decades.
Primarily reduced foot traffic combined with more food choices, including food delivery apps, and crime. While crime isn't the top reason, it's another challenge such locations have to contend with.
Most McDonalds that remain in cities will be those in top tourist destination spots that get regular foot traffic day and night along with those with drive-thrus.
Likely something better and more appealing will replace that spot. Bank is somewhat surprising with so many closing, but they do still open new ones here and there. Key is whether there are many other banks in the area and demographics, such as gentrification. Time will tell what goes in there.

Imagine losing 8 coworkers and the most upvoted comment is about the balloons. Reddit group think is a sickness.

The rent went up and the McDonald's operator decided not to renew. You can probably make more $$$ per sq foot not in a CBD especially after COVID. The lunch crowds are gone.

European chocolate tastes very different, it just depends on what you ate when you were a kid

The article doesn't say anything about homelessness or crime causing the place to close but there are a hundred people in the Pittsburgh sub claiming that's what did it in.

The article doesn't say that. It's just speculation.
