Talk about whatever, respecting the rules established by Lemmygrad. Failing to comply with the rules will grant you a few warnings, insisting on breaking them will grant you a beautiful shiny banwall.

A community for comrades to chat and talk about whatever doesn't fit other communities

Reason being well, I use them everyday. And they are not sufficiently developed here. I have to walk 20 mins to get to a slow ass shaking train.

Metros I like but stops are far away both to my home and my job. Couple that with the overpopulation and crowdedness it makes a very consuming and tiring experience. Not fun at all when you ride half an hour ass to ass with another person. Especially when you are an introvert.

Busses? I avoid them as much as possible. It is slow, shaky, even less space and more people than metros and trains. I love getting stuck in traffic with strangers breathing in my face.

Correction, you don't like the current state of your public transit, which often are bad by design to make cars more appealing, especially if you're in the US since that nation kinda built a lot of wealth on top of the car industry. Public transit can be good but it has to be made a priority, which I think in your local region it is not. If it is possible and something that you have a previous interest of doing, traveling to a place with a more robust public transit infrastructure could maybe give you a broader perspective
