My city is all tourism. That’s why it became such an issue. Hotels for tourism.

Reddit was not much different in the beginning. It was kinda of weird and had a super Linux tech nerd culture with a circle jerky political culture. There was kind of a nice time between that and now, even though it was still niche. Hopefully we can see something like that again but without all the private interest ruining it in the end. But yeah, I’m with you.

My city banned Airbnb and VRBO, and actually successfully made it not a thing here. Not sure why Barcelona cannot also. The water usage issue seems easy to fix, or not really the issue at all.

The intended purpose isn’t to fix traffic. It’s supposed to allow more volume of cars through per day. Entirely different things.

I’m not suggesting that’s a good thing.
