      Yeah that’s a bold assumption. My bet is on “it’s going to get progressively worse and never better”. I have yet to be proven wrong. Since the day I was born everything’s been enshittening with only inconsequential cosmetic improvements (lol technology, what a joke).

        Oh I love electric scooters in cities! I always get excited when I visit a city that has those Lime or other brand rentable ones.
