"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.

Electric skateboards seem cool but terrifying. A friend of mine broke both their legs on an electric skateboard like 3 or 4 years ago and is only just now starting to be able to do real physical activity again. They weren't new to electric skateboards either, it'd been one of their main modes of transit for like a decade at that point.
Yeah, unpowered boards are dangerous enough for me. The idea of dowhnhill braking/regen is appealing, but the lack of redundancy is too concerning at my age: I'll stick to bikes that offer a broader number of ways to stop and can handle debris better.
