Hmm interesting. We got a main guy who happens to be a "flows tradesman" who believes in the idea that the world is always changing.

An unusual premise but I think the series is interesting just for that so far. Kinda curious how they can develop a core story from this.

i quite liked the first chapter will get around to reading more, you can really tell this comes from the same Author as Mushishi. The MC is a very similar character, doing a very similar job, its just a modern version of Mushishi with an assistant. I really like Mushishi and I have a feeling I will like this as well.

On one hand, flow disposal is a public job. Everyone learns what the flow is in school. There's a special type of document to prove in school that you being late was caused by flow. And it can be caused just by strong feelings.
So, as I understand, it's more or less normal situation that the reality is disturbed like this.

On the other hand, people give reactions like: "Whoa, what the hell? Where'd my house go?!" and "What's with that? That's crazy!", the girl who came to work with flow doesn't know how to handle it, etc.
To me this seems to be quite contradictional - enough for me to not like the first chapter. I'll give it a second try when the next chapter is out, but only because of the author.

Just because they know about it and know what it is doesn't mean it's a common occurrence.

well, kind of weak tbh, but nothing that bad either...

Yes! A new series by Urushibura-sensei!
I like the relaxing tone of the story despite all the weirdness that's going on - just like Mushishi.
It also reminds me of the Monogatari series what with your mind forming oddities that affect reality along with oddity specialists who confront said oddities.
A good author leaves the audience enough material to be satisfied with, yet yearning for more.
