"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.

Where do you live?
I have a very highly rated fuck off lock and insurance for a full year is around €200 here and the city is kind of known for bicycle theft and I ride it everywhere. My ebike is hard to tell that it's an ebike, and I'm rough on my bicycles and let the paint chip etc, so it looks beat up (when I keep it in very good mechanical order)
Canada. The Greater Toronto Area ... I have the Kryptonite lock, I think the Lock Picking Lawyer recommended it. I have trouble taking either my road or mountain bike with it despite the lock. Too many incidents in the past with people stealing my bike has scarred me.
I used to have a heavy AF bike that got stolen and was rusting and all that ... certain parts of the city back then you couldn't leave anything.
Sheesh sounds pretty rough..
