Unpopular Opinion
Welcome to the Unpopular Opinion community!
How voting works:
Vote the opposite of the norm.
If you agree that the opinion is unpopular give it an arrow up. If it's something that's widely accepted, give it an arrow down.
Guidelines:
Tag your post, if possible (not required)
- If your post is a "General" unpopular opinion, start the subject with [GENERAL].
- If it is a Lemmy-specific unpopular opinion, start it with [LEMMY].
Rules:
1. NO POLITICS
Politics is everywhere. Let's make this about [general] and [lemmy] - specific topics, and keep politics out of it.
2. Be civil.
Disagreements happen, but that doesn’t provide the right to personally attack others. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Please also refrain from gatekeeping others' opinions.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Shitposts and memes are allowed but...
Only until they prove to be a problem. They can and will be removed at moderator discretion.
5. No trolling.
This shouldn't need an explanation. If your post or comment is made just to get a rise with no real value, it will be removed. You do this too often, you will get a vacation to touch grass, away from this community for 1 or more days. Repeat offenses will result in a perma-ban.
Instance-wide rules always apply. https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/
I very recently lost my 11-bar gen1 leaf when I got rear-ended. It had 110k km on it and I really loved it. Once insurance made me the boy-out offer I Immediately went to check out the newer leaf expecting more of what I lost, and I'm sorry to say that I really really didn't like the gen2 leaf. It was gutless and felt like the suspension was made of marshmallows.... Yes it was bigger, but it lost all the magic the first gen had and became a floaty family sedan that happened to be electric.
I oped for a VW e-golf instead and it's been amazing!!
That's a shame to hear, I never test drove one of the newer leaf models since we had decided on a 2016-2017 leaf and ended up getting one. I'm hoping mine lasts a long time, the e-golf looks great too!
