Not Just Bikes — Why I don't use Google Maps in Amsterdam

nebula.tv

Google Maps is an application that is used by over two billion people every month. But as an application that is primarily designed by and for car drivers, it often fails in a human-sized city like Amsterdam.

I was born in Amsterdam and even I got lost there near Bijlmerplein with Google Maps.

A Community for the Not Just Bikes YouTube & Nebula channel run by Jason Slaughter.

Official channels:

NOTE: This is an unofficial Community in no way affiliated with NotJustBikes or Jason Slaughter.

RULES

1. Be nice. Please.

I know it’s the internet, but be nice. And report trolls & spammers.

2. Stay on topic

Try to stick to posts and comments related to the themes of NJB videos, or content creation. Things like urban planning, mobility & transportation, social equity, Dutch culture, etc…

3. No Trolling

Go troll somewhere else. We don’t need that shit here.

4. No comment screenshots

Please don’t post screenshots of stupid comments as a post. We all know there are ignorant morons online, we don’t need to bring even more attention to their stupid comments.

5. No vehicular cycling

Jason has no patience for advocates of vehicular cycling, and neither do we. You can talk about vehicular cycling, but if you promote it as an alternative to safe bike infrastructure, you may be banned. You can post that crap somewhere else.

6. No people being hit by cars/road violence

Do not show videos or pictures of people being hit by cars, or other road violence. We don’t need to see that shit. We know cars are dangerous, and many people have bad memories of car crashes. Keep it out of this subreddit.

7. No tone policing

We don’t need any more tone police. If you don’t like the tone that Not Just Bike takes in his videos, there’s a very easy solution: stop watching them.
