Can ride-pooling service Via catch up to Uber and Lyft by being the friendly alternative?

Can ride-pooling service Via catch up to Uber and Lyft by being the friendly alternative?This month Via hit 50 million rides, versus Uber’s 10 billion and Lyft’s 500 million–but with much less of the vitriol, and productive relationships with the cities in which it operates.

I'm so confused, please help! the camp wristband are not supposed to come with camping already? why is divided in 2....help
They intended this as a way for someone to purchase JUST a HL wristband to join another HL campsite and carpool with them. Alternatively if you JUST have a HL wristband you can camp in a tent only HL area but you still won't be able to drive your vehicle on site. You'll either need to park offsite and shuttle in (details TBD) or you'll need to take the EF shuttle (run through bus.com) from one of the... Source: 5 months ago
Shuttle Experience
The shuttle was okay for me.

Mears Express better than Standard - MCO to Kidani?
So I check on the Lyft app (recommended by Disney for their Minnie Busses too (not Uber)) and the app said it would be about $32-$38 each way. So I am gonna go with Lyft when we get to MCO so I do not have to worry about waiting for a bus (that may never show up). Source: over 1 year ago
