" Riders will be asked whether they would like to leave a tip when rating their driver at the end of a trip." So exactly same as Lyft. Also do not forget Lyft would not exist without uber doing most of the "shady" work they did to get around and eventually change regulations which helped ride-sharing companies to operate .
- kelnos 9y agoAnd hell, Lyft has done plenty of shady stuff, too. They're just quiet about it and have a better PR department, and have branded themselves in a much more sympathetic way.
- spaceflunky 9y agoI don't know if their PR department is better, I think it is just that Lyft got lucky that the media, pundits, and commenters like us tend use "Uber" as a catchall for ride-sharing. Maybe it's a "first to market" curse for Uber. It's kind of like how tech shuttles get labeled "Google Buses" even though Facebook, Yahoo, Linkedin, Microsoft, etc, also have hundreds of buses. But colloquially, all white busses are "Google Buses"
