> If you're still doing business with Uber in 2017, it's because you don't want to know or you don't care who you're dealing with.
Or because I don't really have an option. Cabs are still terrible and require me to carry cash which I don't, and lyft doesn't work on my phone.
- rrdharan 10y agoCurious, what phone are you using where Uber works and Lyft doesn't? I actually agree with the OPs statement as it applies to customers (at least when there's a reasonable alternative). I live in NYC so it was pretty easy for me - I deleted the app and switched to using Lyft.
- CaptSpify 10y agoWell, that's complicated but... I currently use android, and lyft won't work without permanent access to my location and contacts, which I consider unacceptable. I'm supposed to get the ubuntu phone in about a week, and afaik, there's no lyft client for that. There is an uber webpage, m.uber.com or something that should work with it though. This is all untested on my new phone, so I may be incorrect.
- seppin 10y agowhat about the millions that make a living driving for Uber? the real impact of automation / globalization perhaps has been put off my companies like Uber, employing people who have been left behind, by no fault of their own. Uber is bigger than SV ethics and grandstanding.
