We talk a lot about enshittification of technology, so tell me about technology that is getting better!

I personally love the progress of electric scooters. I’ve been zooming around on a 400$ escooter for a year and it works so well. It has a range of around 20 miles and top speed of 15 mph, so it works just super well for my uses, and 10 years ago scooters with that range/speed/price were no where near a thing.

    Smart phones and ssd’s. Every smartphone I get is an upgrade because every 5 years the tech at my buying point gets better. Ssd’s just make everything so much faster then hardrives and works with my old AF computer. But the hardrive I had lasted 10 years slowly failing and still booting windows somehow.

      I would agree if they followed consumer desire instead of dictating what features get kept and removed.
