I don’t know anywhere where you don’t need some form of ticket. Granted, various cities have different forms of convenience to make it practical.
In Boston, I know of some forms of transit that are free - because a specific business is paying for it to drive commerce, because the transit authority temporarily wants to promote it to reduce traffic, or because it’s undergoing a temporary change in operation and ticket collection would be inconvenient.
Well, right, but even you are using the word “ticket”. The one up in this screenshot seems like it’s at least mostly automated. A rose by any name I guess.
bruh, you have to get a ticket for a bus?

Huh, I’ve only used transit systems with rfid tickets or automated paper ticket readers

yeah it’s usually only like a dollar or two and takes a few seconds
guessing the 10-ride ticket costs more
you have to charge per ticket because americans are unwilling to raise taxpayer budget for this kind of thing
