Probably too much light pollution. Unless you’re far away from any light it’s difficult to see with the naked eye. Try taking a picture with a long exposure (just a couple seconds should do it). You’ll want to be looking North and they can change in intensity through the night but I was able to get some good photos around 11:30.
After it started getting dark. It was very vivid around 10:30ish to 11:30 or so. I went to sleep after that though, so it might’ve gotten brighter. I was checking periodically earlier but wasn’t seeing anything til it suddenly became visible.
Couldn’t see shit from my place. Was I looking in the wrong direction? At the wrong time? Or is there just too much light pollution on my street?

What time and direction?
Randomly from 10 to 2, north, west, and south.
Hmm, odd. Must’ve been light pollution, as I was able to pretty clearly see them north, west, east, and right above at around 11:20.
Yeah, there’s a lot of light pollution in and around this neighborhood.
I’m not sure, there was a ton of light pollution where I was at. It was all over the sky in every direction and moved around.
When?

It came and went where I was. It was difficult to see with street lights so we went to a nearby football pitch which was dark and could see it then.
Phones definitely making it look better than the eye sees it.
Edit: look North
