Please keep it going. If people want an all-crime-all-the-time sub let them go to r/crimeinNYC.

Just like we have r/Micromobilitynyc , everyone concerned about issues related to micromobility should only discuss it there. Yet that sub is consistently cross-posted here

I actually whole-heartedly agree.

Just like, in theory, this sub has rules against questions ("Questions go in r/AskNYC, the Monthly Discussion Thread or on r/nyc's Discord") and photos ("Photos of NYC belong in r/nycPICS. Mods will remove photos that are uninteresting, of poor quality or commonly seen compositions. Please use r/nychistory for historic photos, r/nycmaps for maps, r/nycrail for pics of trains or subways and r/FoodNYC for food-related pics. All pics that relate to weather, season, tourist attractions, views, nature, etc. belong in r/nycpics.")

There already is a bike sub, and this sub doesn't need a daily dose of bike lane obstruction pictures. But I feel like this will never happen considering that the Mods don't even strictly enforce the rules against no questions or photos.

Agreed, it’s a slippery slope and needs to enforced across the board or not at all. There’s clear bias if that’s not how it’s handled.
