The site is down now so I can't really try it (oh no!), but I'd love something like this. I have no brand loyalty, and I hate switching between apps.
Some feature requests:
* Better mobile support
* Filtering (for example, I don't want bikes.. just scooters)
* Maybe I'm alone on this, but I'd rather color coding show the company rather than the battery
* Is there a way to deep-link to the specific app's "Ride" screen?
Thanks! I just brought the site back up so please give it another shot. And please let me know what specific issues you're seeing on mobile.
Filtering is definitely in the works, and I'll consider changing the color coding to be brand (or indicate both in the markers somehow). On mobile, clicking the brand name should open the app (unless its not installed, in which case it should take you to the install page for the app). I haven't found a way to link to the specific vehicles in the apps though.
Loyalty != preference. I bet parent – like me – has a preference for the better scooters and software (Bird) over the shitty ones (Lime), but he’ll grab a Lime if no Bird is nearby.

Clever way to get referrals!Filtering is definitely in the works, and I'll consider changing the color coding to be brand (or indicate both in the markers somehow).

Compared to, say, Uber vs Lyft, in which I personally refuse to use Uber no matter what.
Cool Show HN though! Can now check scooter locations in the browser, as well as on mobile.
