I find walking with transit more freeing. You can just go anywhere, no dealing with parking nor worrying about a massive expensive vehicle. You don’t need to apply for a license and take classes before you can do it, and people of all ages can safely participate. No worrying about taking the same modality back either.

When did we decide that isolation was freedom.

You're welcome to own nothing and be happy, you don't get to force that "freedom" on others.

Do that if that’s what you like. No one is stopping you.

In exchange, consider extending that same optionality to others whose preferences are different from your own.
