At least $5. You have to realize those people don’t make shite for money.

If you can’t afford to tip 20% or more you shouldn’t be ordering takeout.

For takeout they should tip YOU

It’s ALWAYS zero when I have to drive and go inside to get my food

Anything else is straight-up ignorant

Takeout where I go inside to pick it up? Nothing… who am I tipping in this instance?

Takeout where I park and someone brings it out? A few bucks.

10% if I believe I received good service and I am paying at the end. If I am asked to pay at the time of my order I don't tip.

Depends -- but if the takeout experience is positive (I'm greeted, food is packaged nicely and it's ready to go when I arrive) I usually start the tip at $2 for one main, then I'll add an extra dollar for each additional main in the order.

Tip $0.00 for takeout. They agreed to the wage when they took the job. If they want more, they can get another no talent job, they are everywhere.
