Community for those focused on sustainable travel. Our society's current levels of energy intensive and frequent travel are not compatible with life on a finite planet. We advocate for long-term slow travel to see the world, and low energy local travel to deeply experience your community. Green washing free zone.

The communities listed above are decentralized. Centralized instances are omitted as they go against the fedi purpose and it’s better to cultivate digital rights in the free world. That means instances that have a disproportionately large population or are centralized on Cloudflare are not listed.

It's good ES add this route to the network, and the route fits with their other operations.
However, it's a long way around. I remember when there was a train every night from Brussels to Milano, sometimes extending to Venice, via Namur, Luxembourg, Basel, Bern, Brig. That old straighter route would be more efficient, and reconnect people who currently have no night train south.
