Something that should be considered when buying your micromobility device: Try to get something that will last and not end up as trash.

    It is ridiculously difficult to find stuff that isn’t trash. I have the money to spend on better quality stuff, but for some things it is just hard to find stuff that is made to last.

    Reduce, Reuse… only then Recycle. How about penalizing companies for imposing software caps? As long as the hardware is capable, i should be able to continue to use it and upgrade the software. At the very least unlock the hardware once it’s out of warranty.
