micromobility - Bikes, scooters, boards: Whatever floats your goat, this is micromobility
Ebikes, bicycles, scooters, skateboards, longboards, eboards, motorcycles, skates, unicycles, heelies, or an office chair: 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.

Exactly, I don't blame the university not wanting them even if they’re off either on account of how they can spontaneously catch on fire
The fire issue is generic to lithium batteries, and even the industry itself wants regulations on Battery safety which I support. Sodium ion batteries don't catch fire and China's Mass producing them and you can buy them today. It's likely that electric cars and bikes will probably end up using sodium ion batteries long term. You only really need Lithium-ion batteries for Ultra portable devices
That's interesting actually, I'll have to look more into sodium ion batteries to figure out what they're all about.
Yeah for stationary and even some Mobile use sodium ion batteries are going to be the new dominant technology
There's also lithium iron phosphate (LFP) which doesn't catch on fire either, and has been around longer. There are trade-offs, like sodium being vastly more plentiful than lithium.
