"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.

this sounds like reverse lottery. a high probability of minor gains with a miniscule chance of serious negative outcome.
I don't know, the health gains seem VERY substantial, not minor. I think biking even a moderate amount, 2 or 3 times a week, would be literally life changing for most Americans and Canadians. And this isn't even counting the gains to mental health, happiness, and finances.
