Hey folks just wanna say that studies show that Airbnb is contributing to rising rents in multiple major cities, so please don't use it.
@eribloodlust which studies? Would like to read up the source, cause I don't see the connection.
Here is a link to an article about one such report: https://mobile.nytimes.com/2018/05/03/nyregion/airbnb-rent-manhattan-brooklyn.html
"Airbnb makes it easy to rent apartments to tourists, taking units off the market for full-time residents, the report said."

@eribloodlust thanks!
