maybe it's just what I tell myself to cope, but I feel like Lyft fucks the driver and the passenger slightly less than Uber. I don't drive for Uber at all now, I can usually get 100% of my rides from Lyft without much downtime, and when I did drive for both Lyft was never as keen on offering me *dogshit* rides as Uber was, especially after I started declining the bad offers. Uber, on the other hand, seems to want to punish you if you don't want to take every <$25/hr ride they offer. Don't get me wrong, Lyft will still try to screw with you, but they do it *less frequently.* I get paid for all my wait times, I check. It's not much for the shorter ones (a minute late is like a couple bucks, maybe) but the longer delays on meant-to-be-shorter rides (fiasco at the checkout, an argument has begun, etc.) can sometimes double the ride profit.
