This is true but I think it’s worth noting that the most impactful and worst aspects of AirBnB and its ilk are from investors buying old apartment buildings and renting them out like hotels, while dodging all the living standards and financial regulations of actual hotels.

Private homeowners renting out rooms in their houses, or even renting out their whole house, for vacationers are not really the problem.

I live in Hawai’i and I approve this message
Couch surfing and hostels for the win.
I’ll never use Airbnb or anything like it.
Camping, sometimes I pull my 5th wheel with my truck, but usually when I go on vacation I camp in my huge tents

May you be blessed with the convenience of Airbnb neighbors.
You sound like the type to just leave your shopping cart out in the middle of the parking lot.
