    Fuck cars and fuck Uber but this sounds like a reaction to Lyft being integrated in the (excellent) Transit app

      Cars are useful and convenient. That is partially why they are so popular.

      If you want less cars in your city car sharing services and micro mobility (scooters, ebikes) are your friend.

        “useful and convenient”…

        How about deadly, destructive, and isolating?

        Or we could just ignore the corrupt alliance of industry colluding to eliminate other transportation options and wax poetic about the Free Market and Rugged Individualism, right?

        I share a couple cars with a few hundred neighbours. Saves a bunch of parking spaces.

        Except when during winter. Or any time of year when you try to find place to store your box of rust.
