  • I like nationalisation as a concept. I don’t like that currently it is still a concept as Labor has not made clear, concrete commitments for what it could mean.

    I understand that ticket prices are unlikely to come down. It sucks but I hope they can at least commit to freezing prices for a while or something. I think nationalisation offers the opportunity to rework the ticketing system as a whole to have it be completely integrated. I hope this would mean you can just tap in and out of stations and have the lowest price automatically calculated like they are in some European countries (the Netherlands for example).

    Unfortunately Labour hasn’t said anything clear about their plans other than “we want to make it better”. Hopefully we find out more in the Autumn.
















  • I use Vivaldi browser but the iOS version is lacking some defining features compared to Android or desktop versions. Not delved into alternative browsers on iOS much (Vivaldi is what I use on everything what), but from what I tried they’re not as polished as safari since it wasn’t that long ago that apple allowed you to even set the default browser in iOS.

    Definitely monopolist strategy but unfortunately most apple users see the closed ecosystem as a selling point so hard to see it changing
