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.

Can't add specific dollar tips?
That's because the frigin app tries to open it in the app, you have to open it in browser. On the phone you have to switch off default app for "lyft.com" site. Source: 11 months ago
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
Nice cut :)
You do! Go onto lyft.com and pull up driving history for any given week. Then select "Download Weekly Summary". You'll get the above breakdown. (I just learned this myself by playing around with the reports). Source: over 2 years ago

Open source projects for community?
Why doesn't india have more open source projects? I found [Libre taxi][https://libretaxi.org/] which is basically free open source ride sharing similar to uber\ola but saves the cut of company. This could potentially enable the lower class for higher profit margins. For a country that's a big player in software, we sure don't have many open source projects :(. Source: 11 months ago

Have you seen LibreTaxi (https://libretaxi.org/)? You might want to build on top on that. Source: about 2 years ago
Has Uber/Ola gotten basically unusable or is it just me ?
There is this app that works using telegram API. It's called libre taxi. https://libretaxi.org/ One advantage with this project is that it is self hosted and federated. Source: about 2 years ago
Would anyone like to build a full stack project together?
A project like libretaxi allows drivers to set their own prices and "haggle" with customers. I think it's a turn off for a customer to not know the price beforehand, and nobody appears to use that service. We would have a way that we democratically decide on a price to set and a percentage that the driver gets, giving drivers the ability to make decisions about how the company is run and ways it can benefit the...
