Click Bait Title.
I try not to be negative as much as I can in the HN community, but Business Insider has definitely been leaning towards click bait recently (could be longer - but it's been a hypothesis of mine for the past month.)
"All" of Uber's problems? So sexual discrimination of employees, or rapes committed by drivers will be solved if I can choose to add an extra % tip on my ride?
Also - it's not like drivers are flocking to Lyft or other services that DO allow tips in huge droves.
Even BI themselves admit that the title is click-bait-y and just a way to argue (poorly, with little data or facts beyond conjecture and speculation):
"Adding a tipping feature wouldn't make Uber's manifold problems vanish. It would, however, be a step in the right direction, even if it's long overdue."
- surement 10y agoI modified the title to make it slightly less click-baity but I posted the article mainly for the humour of it. It is an outrageously stupid statement.
