Many, many other cities have figured out how to have scooter parking spots and scooter-exclusive trails that prevent them from impacting you negatively.

You’re getting mad at a company and their customers who are reasonably providing the solution for a need (getting around town without having to park a car), when you should be getting mad at your city council for not providing appropriate parking spaces for them or bike trails.

Hey where do you live? I want to start renting out your space. Don't be mad at me, be mad at your city council, they're to blame for not giving me space to rent out to others so I can make a profit.

Micro mobility companies that monetize transit are not a solution to car based infrastructure and lack of efficient public transportation

Eh, I’m mad at the users for not being good neighbors. You need a scooter, fine. Take the extra 30 seconds to find an appropriate place to park it.

Edit to add: this strikes me as someone who says “don’t blame the company for doing the thing the government lets them do”, but would turn around to “stop the government forcing companies to do things” if they did enact real regulations.
