Ebikes, bicycles, scooters, skateboards, longboards, eboards, motorcycles, skates, unicycles, heelies, or an office chair: Whatever floats your goat, this is all things micromobility!
"Transportation using lightweight vehicles such as bicycles or scooters, especially electric ones that may be borrowed as part of a self-service rental program in which people rent vehicles for short-term use within a town or city.
micromobility is seen as a potential solution to moving people more efficiently around cities"

It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:
Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.
Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.
Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

Seattle just voted in a huge transit boost by electing Katie Wilson, so I expect the "full montreal" is on the table again after a decade of goodish concrete barriers in the affluent parts of town and shitty "sharrows and posts" in the less moneyed areas.
Hopefully she can push real lanes where they were putting concrete barriers, concrete barriers where they were putting posts and paint, and at least these rubber bumpers where they have sharrows/nothing.
Love to see it! Here's hoping Katie Wilson's impact to the city will be on the same order as Anne Hidalgo of Paris.
