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.

    And they run cool. My office has a fixture that was too bright which would normally take those 4’ fluorescent bulbs.

    I got on a ladder take one out. Turns out they were LEDs. Cool to the touch. I put electrical tape over them and called it a day.
