    It’s been surprising to see just how many pro-car users seem to lurk on these anti-car/pro-alternative transport communities.

      This community regularly makes it to the front page of Everything. It’s really not that isolated from the rest of Lemmy

        I guess that’s the difference in scale between here and Reddit. r/fuckcars was tiny compared to the whole of reddit, but I guess this is large enough to be prominent in Everything.

          I dunno, I didn’t subscribe to /r/fuckcars on reddit, but I got their posts all the time on /r/all back in the day. I think a lot of people just don’t like having to rely on cars 😅

      They’re probably imagining me as that Prius or something slowing them down in traffic. My neighborhood is basically one lane when people are parked, and there are a lot of kids, so if they drove the road they’d understand.

      Fuck cars is regularly in my “everything” feed. And most of these measures aim to reduce traffic, which ultimately benefits the remaining car drivers.
