We talk a lot about enshittification of technology, so tell me about technology that is getting better!

I personally love the progress of electric scooters. I’ve been zooming around on a 400$ escooter for a year and it works so well. It has a range of around 20 miles and top speed of 15 mph, so it works just super well for my uses, and 10 years ago scooters with that range/speed/price were no where near a thing.

    I see, interesting. Do you know if there’s a way to completely prohibit an app from running in the background other than just using the “restricted” battery mode for it, which doesn’t stop it completely?

      I’m really not aware of any way to see what is or isn’t actually running on your phone at any given moment. It sucks because it really does send you on a wild goose chase and leads to a lot of unnecessary ewaste when people replace their phones not knowing they just need to get rid of some apps to sort their battery life
