Hello everyone. Welcome to the community's first pinned post! ๐Ÿ“Œ

I'm thinking of doing weekly/regularly cycling pins for casual discussion on the topic of transportation in Malaysia, to get the wheels spinning.

A few topic ideas off the top of my head:

  • sharing good/bad personal experiences/confessions with regards to taking the various modes of transport
  • tips, tricks, and lifehacks for the various modes of transport
  • off the beaten paths to take and explore
  • ideas on improving modal choice (i.e. access to transportation modes that isn't cars)
  • nerding out on transport modes and lines you wish exists, alternative transit diagrams, etc.
  • transportation history/future
  • comparisons with other countries
  • universal access

Topic ideas welcomed, here and on all subsequent meta-posts. Full-feature posts on such topics even more so! ๐Ÿ˜†๐Ÿ‘โ€

Thank you.

Perhaps a car talk megathread?

i know it's technically transport, but car in a transport community sounds like some Grab Rideshare hahaha or some car rental corner of the transport community.

Lol yeah I guess

roads and highways can la, since public transport uses them too.

car peeps can make their own community. ๐Ÿ˜’

Hmm, so is your idea of this community is transport excluding car? Sorry i'm not too clear about that ๐Ÿ˜†

Let see:

  • public transport general question(eg: what line to use to get from point a to point b, schedule of public transport, etc etc)
  • touristy place that can be accessed via public transport
  • sightseeing route recommendation(maybe sort of like for roadtrip, or maybe new alternative route to take with better view)(same as "off the beaten path to take and explore"?)
  • cyclists talk(place for bicycle enthusiast to talk about cycling stuff, eg: bicycle, shop recommendation, equipment, advice, diagnosis and repair, cycling route, etc etc)
  • ebike(place to talk about and discuss all thing ebike, including electric motorcycle)
  • a general thread for everything

That's all i have ๐Ÿ˜…

I may have a hidden urbanist agenda ๐Ÿ™Š

But yes, I want the community to focus away from cars as the default mode. I want to plant the idea that it doesn't have to be just cars everywhere.

I am an urbanism fan too. Maybe we can talk about how towns and cities are designed for better living too. It is closely tied to transportation ๐Ÿ˜Š
