I've taken over a hundred Uber rides and literally never tipped. Nor have I ever had a driver who gave me a bad look for not tipping them. It's not expected and Uber actively discourages drivers from soliciting tips. For the record, my rating was around 4.5 last time I checked so it doesn't seem like drivers are penalizing me for not tipping. Not having to do the mental/social gymnastics of tipping is a big feature of the Uber experience for me.

Except I'm not a driver. 4.5 is, in any realistic rating system, perfectly fine. Also, why do I care if you think I'm being rated poorly? It's not like it affects my experience in any way.
