Electric cars just replace a car with another car. I’m not even convinced we need lots more public transport, at least not long-range public transport.

and yet people will be shocked that a decent everyday bike can cost as little as £500. For some reason they expect them to be practically free. For much less you can only buy a BSO (Bicycle-Shaped Object)

Around here families of four probably have at least two cars. I didn’t realise what ‘car-dependency’ looked like until I moved out of London. People tell me, “You don’t have transport,” but I walk, I have a bike, I get the bus or the train.

My thoughts also. Totalitarian regimes make people work all the time so they’re too burned-out and disorientated to rebel.

Only if it’s for two people - 30 hours each!

It’s probably closer to IG than any other Fediverse app is to its non-Fediverse equivalent. Although introducing Collections and possibly Groups might make it more versatile and give it Flickr features (though not perhaps the comprehensive picture info and ability to download the original).

and free-text search, not just on hashtags and usernames.
