  • Your argument is the equivalent of, "I saw someone get stabbed to death so you shouldnt wear your motorcycle helmet."

    I have no doubt you did see these things but that doesnt mean loud pipes dont add a bit of safety at the expense of noise comfort. Every bit of safety adds up and can save your life. There is no one thing that will do it but if you do enough it can have an effect. Maybe you didnt hear those pipes but a few hours later someone else did and didnt see them and they were saved.

  • I mean i dont have any issue with them migrating. If it improves their community and its well being and gives them more admin tools they need to protect their usersthen im all for it. But I just dont want to main their instance if down the road they migrate and I need to do a new main.

  • I've got accounts everywhere but lemm.ee has been the most stable. World seems to go down amlot and beehaw keeps talking about shutting down and moving to a different platform. So im hesitant to use that as a main.

  • As someone who didnt have an excessively loud bike. .. I've almost been killed so many times by people who didnt see or hear me and who switched lanes or pulled out in front of me.

    Loud pipes do save lives and no amount of bullshit research about one particular scenario that doesnt factor in everything else will change that.

    If you think you cant hear loud pipes if you are in front of or beside a motercycle then your an idiot who probably doesnt even ride.

    No amount of anything will prevent headons .

    But i dont ride anymore and if you do and you want to cruise quietly then you do you.

  • I make like 10 accounts before i found one that worked for me. Luckily i can log them all into sync for lemmy and switch between them when im doom scrolling so i can doom scroll the same content 10 times before bed!
