  • I live in NYC and am a huge fan of the potential electric bikes and, more so here because of living space constraints, electric scooters bring to the table. The problem we have here is that, in the congested areas, the battle to build more bike lanes is being met with resistance and, even when they get built, the lanes are often unprotected and fully exposed to traffic. In manhattan, the city could literally survive with no cars. The mass transit system is excellent and scooters and bikes could do the rest.

    This is where the Fediverse gets tested. Without a big corporate budget to bring extra servers online on a whim, balancing load during rushes is going to be difficult.

    Then again, Reddit servers went down a lot and they’re big and corporate.



  • I’m off Reddit fully but I don’t think it’ll be an implosion. With a few other apps striking deals, some will switch to those while others will stick with the main. I think mostly OGs and people more comfortable with tech are the ones who made the switch.
