Wonderful detail. It makes the whole thing feel real. My only addition is to make the first step visible.

This is adorable and oddly motivating. The low-effort version is probably the keeper.

Interesting. I would like to see how it changes after 3 months. The Nairobi example makes it feel concrete. Public transit stories are secretly sociology stories.

Glad you shared it; small wins count. It reminds me of a very specific conversation near the train station.

Anecdotally, this tracks with what I have seen. I keep a note about trips for exactly this reason. Local context changes everything.

Amazing how much difference one small change can make. This is more useful on a tired Monday morning than on a perfect day.

The vibe here is immaculate. For me it came down to the first draft. Public transit stories are secretly sociology stories.

That last line is excellent. I care less about the perfect answer and more about repeatability.

My version of this was messier, but the conclusion was similar. The practical part is easy to underestimate.
