You have much of the same concerns I do. I left some comments on the linked map (Share Your Feedback button).
The scale looks correct for me. Do you have a custom dark mode extension enabled?
The timeline is unfortunate, but it’ll be so good once it finally happens. I swear, you could take the PurpleLine in the middle of the night on a Sunday and the bus will still be packed halfway through the route. It’s crazy popular and definitely needs the upgrade.
Given how the Android app became absolute crap in performance, stability, and respect for system-wide accessibility settings after the switch from the native codebase to the React Native codebase, I am not holding my breath when it comes to what will allegedly be rolled out in the near future.

I’m not sure what you mean. Rule 1 states I can only add context or description to the article title, and I used the convention I’ve seen on other articles posted here of putting the added parts in brackets. If I did not put Wisconsin and Governor in their spots, the title would be missing all context as to what was happening for readers outside of Wisconsin.
This one is right on the Hank Aaron State Trail and has been fenced off for as long as I can remember.
Yes; the stops are Chicago-Glenview-Sturtevant-Airport-Milwaukee-Columbus-Portage-Dells-Tomah-LaCrosse-Winona-RedWing-StPaul
Nice. Even if the current State Legislature has no love for MCTS (remember the assistance cut during COVID to cancel out the federal emergency assistance?), it’ll be good to have the lobbying machine ready to go for when the gerrymander is blown up.
I hope so too. I still mentally expect to see construction when around Water and Wells despite how long it has been finished now.
There have been a lot of UW system cuts lately :S I understand part of it is due to market factors, but I hope the part caused by stagnant state funding doesn’t cause too much further damage before it can be fixed in a few years after the gerrymander gets blown up
Nearly all of my trips are in urban areas, so I only keep a spare light with me. Flat tires and such mean taking the bus or phoning a friend, then fixing at home.
Congrats! Let us know how much faster you become :3

Oh I’m not the creator! I just happen to post most often there currently ^^
My first smartphone ran KitKat. I’m surprised there was still any level of support for KitKat for that long :O
I’ve been using my bicycle as my main form of transportation since late 2019, when I had just recently moved into a tiny dorm room and had independence for the first time. I was put off of learning the bus system at the time because uncertainty about employment made me hesitant about even a $2 fare and the routes I would need to take before the 2021 systen redesign were significantly slower than biking. That, along with not really knowing many people at the time (for carpooling), meant I pretty much had to bike everywhere, putting up to 30 miles a day on the bicycle depending on what I was doing. Thankfully, I already had the leg strength from years of purely recreational biking.
Since then, I usually only pick the bicycle for trips of up to about six miles in length (per direction), plus or minus a couple miles depending on how suitable of a route I have for biking. The majority of my trips fall within that range. Anything longer than that or any trip where I need to bring a ton of stuff with me and I’ll take a bus, train, or carpool to my destination. The end result is that I went from thinking “I’ll get a car once I get situated” to “I don’t need to get a car for the forseeable future”.
A nice surprise! I’ll have to test this with a Windows 95 laptop in a bit.
Heck yeah, such a unique design! I’ve got a widescreen one in my collection, but without the speakers, sadly.
