They aren't going anywhere. People are just mad their favorite service didn't get chosen.

Who cares though, they are all the same. (I forgot which company's I used, until I checked my phone now to see the app). They really didn't work much on brand recognition, I 'm surprised people have favorites

I'm mostly upset by the # limits. It's not enough for the entire market.

Also I feel like some of the bad behavior was vandalism by haters. Who the hell would put black sharpie on the QR codes or shit on scooters themselves? Probably not someone who uses them.

I felt the same to be honest (my comment above was meant to be somewhat humorous). I 'm pretty sure many of the ones thrown around where parked properly and someone just kicked them down. Pretty sad.

The sharpie thing might actually be someone trying to "reserve" a scooter for themselves. (Take a picture of the code before making it unreadable, then the scooter always stays wherever they left it.)

I'm just mad that the city gets to "choose a service" at fucking all.
