I live in ~~REDACTED~~ and its a heavy car based location.

Lately though, I noticed more and more bikes in general. Some e-bikes, some just mechanical, but overall a high usage of bikes. I have mine as well I'd use if it was the right type, and if everything wasn't far away from me.

It feels like my area is on the breakthrough of a revolution of bikes due to things like cars being expensive, maybe convenience, or some other factor.

I was curious if it's just me seeing this or it's becoming a more common thing. I just wish that we had more bike lanes/paths available. The current infrastructure can't handle the bikes and normal traffic here.

It's missing a few of the features some clients have, but I'm happy that it's here at all as I love IfR.

At least in terms of the communities popping up. A lot of them (even ones I made), are just the Lemmy version of Reddit subs. Is that a good/bad thing? Time will tell, but at the moment I think it's kinda funny of what's happening.

As mentioned, Walmart Chicago is closing all locations, more than likely due to theft, like Portland. If you ask me, I'd say rip up the buildings and parking lots and put a lot of flats or bus stations or something as a replacement.
