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.

No offense, but this idea seems kinda sketchy: A monowheel losing grip can be catastrophic and if the battery dies you're just left with extra weight. Plus, as far as I know, you can't get studded tires for them.
Eh, I've used them in winter extensively. Though a fatbike, as suggested below, is a much better overall option. Compared to tiny tires of an electric scooter, a monowheel is imo superior. Fight me ๐ธ
I'm not fighting someone crazy enough to winter commute on a monowheel lol
