    these tracks are in helsinki, and these are finnish trams, i think skoda may be exporting them to germany, and i don’t know what you guys do with them there, but these are pretty comfortable personally (even comparing to SBB trains, which travel so smoothly that it makes me dizzy, bc there’s very little sensory points of reference)

    you’re most likely having a poor experience bc the tram tracks have fallen into disrepair, bc even comparatively old trams (from the 1970s and the like) can be pretty comfortable on proper tracks (take budapest, their fleet consist largely of older models, but due to good track maintenance and relative straightness of tracks themselves, it’s a pretty good experience)

    not sure why you’re extrapolating your particular experience onto something so vast and vague as “public transport systems outside of china and singapore”, not to mention that a decent amount of comfort is a baseline that good systems of public transport operate off of, with accessibility, frequency and location being more important factors

    do you have access to their financial reports? bc i’m not sure how one can make claims like that otherwise 🤷‍♀️

    like, i kinda see it wrt to the whole blue checkmark fiasco, but the issue with profitability goes much deeper than that, both in terms of time (during which this problem existed) and design (how much is it embedded into twitter as an application)

    as much as i hate elon musk tho, it is a sort of reasonable strategy in case you’re trying to prevent incurring further hosting charges while you’re migrating 🤷‍♀️

    not sure why he can’t just pay the hosting bill but whatever, that’s secondary i guess
