But no platform was ever held accountable for what their members posted, and it looks like this may soon change…

Agreed.

But these are all things that can (and should) be fixed.

Walking a mile should take 15-20 minutes.

If the streets are very busy, the pollution bad, the tunnels smell like piss etc, then that is the problem.

Small amounts of moderate exercise every day are a lot better than going to the gym (by car, usually) for a hard workout.

I’d rather read a book on the sofa, but you can’t walk while sitting on the sofa.

Probably not. If you need to walk a mile, that’s a feature, not a bug. Of course, if you need to walk multiple miles, that’s a different story.
