We talk a lot about enshittification of technology, so tell me about technology that is getting better!

I personally love the progress of electric scooters. I’ve been zooming around on a 400$ escooter for a year and it works so well. It has a range of around 20 miles and top speed of 15 mph, so it works just super well for my uses, and 10 years ago scooters with that range/speed/price were no where near a thing.

      not the guy you asked, but I just got a trike.

      1. I have balance issues so I’ve never been able to balance a regular bike.
      2. carrying capacity with a basket.

      there are definitely options to address the carry capacity with a bike, but I haven’t seen anything to assist with balance.

      Carrying capacity. I’m a bigger dude, and didn’t wanna drive everywhere anymore. I’ve always been pro-micromobility, so I figured it’s time to put my money where my mouth is.
