Easily. Uber is an a-hole company and not just because of harassment allegation.

Agree. I use Lyft a lot more frequently than Uber.


Lyft wasn't hacked and tried keeping it a secret from the public as well.

I’ve noticed a serious decline in the quality of Uber drivers. It seems like now it’s either a smelly former cab driver or a crack head weirdo

I don't even have Uber.

Uber was cheaper in Portland and Cleveland, Lyft in New Orleans, Dallas, and Houston....

That said I've only had one experience I would call bad.

Uber lowered their standards on year, make, and model of car.

It's been very noticeable.

They're desperate to go IPO and will stop at nothing to increase revenue and decrease costs. Their investors are panicking right now because they can't seem to get out of their own way. People are holding on for dear life at that company right now.

I took a 15 minute ride in Knoxville with four people. With their $5 off the ride was $3.78.

I open both apps when looking for a ride. Lyft has been cheaper every single time for the last year+, by several dollars.

Yes, 100%. Lyft also interviews their drivers and treat them better as a whole. Just all around a better product for both the customers and the employees.

Debateable. I drive for both.

Lyft is definitely the cheaper option most times in NOLA, but that’s because it’s a less popular app here. Most people that drive for one drive for both, so you end up with less demand on Lyft.

Bruh y’all got to get ReachNow by BMW. Free fancy waters, phone charging cords, and you roll up in a new BMW instead of Mohammad’s 2004 Prius.

I really don't understand how drivers make money on these things. Always amazed with how cheap rides are..

I’ve heard from multiple drivers that they drive for both services.
