   The "Hydrogen Economy" bubble is bursting. Sabine Hossenfelder said it would happen soon not long ago, and now we're there already. At least, it was relatively short-lived, if I'm not mistaken.

     @taylan To me, EVs trade one set of problems for another. They are transitional, a means to an end, rather than a comprehensive solution to sustainable travel at a personal level. I don't hate EVs, I'm just not sold on them.

     @taylan I'm still bullish on hydrogen but a hype correction is needed. It was two decades ago when I saw the first fuel cell as a tech demo, now I want ICEs to be modified to accept hydrogen as a fuel source. EVs can sod off.

     @thatbrickster @taylan EVs are only viable with heavy subsidies.
