Personally I use Lyft because whilst the behaviour uber engaged (engages?) in has clearly worked very well for them, I would like to make it very slightly less profitable behaviour with my dollar vote. I know I know, this is overly idealistic.
From a consumer perspective they are indistinguishable, however talking to the drivers each has a different pay structure (e.g. I think after XX rides lyft drivers keep all of their fares).
Obviously there are various sweeteners from either sides, but many of the drivers who exclusively drive for lyft formally drove for uber and said they felt better treated both by the company and the customers.
My favourite was a guy who bought his car through uber finance with the intention to drive for lyft. I'm guessing there was little love lost there.
