I love how much this guy fanbois over the Netherlands.
Not Just Bikes
An attempt to recreate the /r/NotJustBikes community on Lemmy. I'm just reserving the Community Name, other folks (for instance the /r/NotJustBikes mods?) are welcome to take over.
NOTE: This sublemmy (?) is in no way related to or affiliated with NotJustBikes, Jason Slaughter, etc.
#RULES
1. Be nice. Please.
I know it's the internet, but be nice. And report trolls & spammers.
2. No memes
No memes, image macros, or low-effort posts. These are easily upvoted, but they pollute the subreddit very quickly.
POSTING MEMES WILL RESULT IN A TEMPORARY BAN.
3. Stay on topic
Try to stick to posts and comments related to the themes of NJB videos, or content creation. Things like urban planning, mobility & transportation, social equity, Dutch culture, etc..
4. No Trolling
Go troll somewhere else. We don't need that shit here.
5. No comment screenshots
Please don't post screenshots of stupid comments as a post. We all know there are ignorant morons online, we don't need to bring even more attention to their stupid comments.
6. No vehicular cycling
I have no patience for advocates of vehicular cycling. You can talk about vehicular cycling, but if you promote it as an alternative to safe bike infrastructure, I will ban you. You can post that crap somewhere else.
7. No people being hit by cars/road violence
Do not show videos or pictures of people being hit by cars, or other road violence. We don't need to see that shit. We know cars are dangerous, and many people have bad memories of car crashes. Keep it out of this subreddit.
8. No tone policing
We don't need any more tone police. If you don't like the tone that Not Just Bike takes in his videos, there's a very easy solution: stop watching them.
9. No internet drama
Don't spread or promote drama over what has happened on the Internet. You're spending too much time online: go touch grass.
it's understandable though sometimes
I get it, the Netherlands does a lot right and North America is falling way far behind.
But it is a bit draining to constantly hear how North America is doomed to its car dependency and cannot be saved, so we're all better off moving to Europe.
NJB is great as an eye opener, to realize how absolutely absurd everything is here. I love his snark and sarcasm. But I'd like to focus more on how we can enact positive change here where we live, and not abandon it. Not all of us have the luxury of being able to uproot.
I'm pretty much all doom and gloom as far as the future goes, and it does kill me a little seeing how things could be better here in the US. How great it must be to have the option of moving.
I've been to Driebergen-Zeist and it's such a .... decent but not exceptional train station? Still want to watch this later.
