We just moved from a very rural area to a large city and am surprised at all the food delivery/rent-a-bike-or-scooter/ride-share/car-share/random delivery/etc. apps and services that are available. What do you find you get the most use of and most value for money?

Thanks for sharing. That is grim. In Australia we had a good plan to connect the country with fibre optics. Then the right wing government stepped in and crippled it every step of the way. So now we ended up with a half assed setup that’s not nearly what we set out to achieve after billions of dollars spent anyway.

They’re now going back and upgrading it at a cost of even more dollars to get it to where it should’ve been ten years ago.
