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.

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