- snowwrestler 9y agoYes and my point is that it is not hurting Lyft's growth. It's not hard for people to use--which was what the GP was speculating about.
- Jedd 9y ago> Yes and my point is that it is not hurting Lyft's growth. That's an opinion, not a point. There's little data available to support the assertion, other than that Lyft has been, and still is, a smaller organisation and less less popular globally, and hasn't been growing as fast as Uber. Ultimately you can't compare the success of Lyft-with-tipping to Lyft-sans-tipping since one doesn't exist. > It's not hard for people to use--which was what the GP was speculating about I agree with others (mostly non-US residents, I expect) insofar as I don't think it's hard to physically tap an extra button on my phone, but it's additional cognitive bother that didn't exist yesterday. It de-differentiates Uber from its competitors (this doesn't really matter to me, but it does make the background to the decision more interesting).
