Ebikes, scooters, longboards: 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.

I have both, an unassisted road bike and a commuter ebike. Both are a workout and do provide good exercise.
I find I tend to ride at 80-100% on my road bike as I love its speed, but I have trouble slowing down and getting a more balanced, zone 2 workout. The ebike provides that.
Plus, they are so much fun.
I have an unpowered hybrid and an electric fatbike: I like the ebike but I love my regular bike. The ebike is for when I need to get somewhere relatively close relatively quickly or I'm recovering from a more demanding bike ride.
