Uber (and other similar apps) are expensive than traditional taxi where I live.
You couldn't pay me to take a taxi again, Uber can get as expensive as they want (Eventually it'll start to be cheaper to just rent a car for the day lmao)
Here where I am from, we use an app called FreeNow. Works like a charm. I use taxi almost every day. For me, each € matters. Believe me, Uber is outrageous here.
Ah well the Taxi scene is a little different in the EU (At least the few countries I've been too), it's been a pleasant experience, nice modern streamlined process, although I've never had a chance to use a EU taxi outside the big city, so it might be a similar experience in those cases as the US
US Taxi industry is shit lmao
Same everywhere as far as I can tell. Uber is a breath of fresh air. Great example of a free market thing obliterating a guild thing.
