- nexuist 7y agoIt's hard to tell. I recently visited my homeland of Albania and was surprised to learn that things like food delivery / ridesharing apps did not exist at all. Someone who goes there could probably make a killing just copying what we have in the States. The future is unevenly distributed, as they say. While we automate away our problems in the first world the third world will be eagerly awaiting existing solutions.
