It is very good UX how escalators slow down when nobodies on them but keep moving. (lemmy.world)

It makes it clear the direction of movement and how the user has to position themselves so they can ride it without thinking about it- but it saves power from slowing down

not all escalators have this, you'll have to look out for ones in lower-traffic areas.

Makes sense, my town only has 3 sets of escalators that I know of so I don't see many.
