Comment on Uber was supposed to help traffic. It didn’t. Robotaxis will be even worse
landlordlover@lemmy.world 9 months agoThe original concept of Uber was ride-sharing, where it would match up riders going to a similar destination, like the airport. But I haven’t seen that option pop up in quite a while.
Wrong, it started as “Ubercap” and you could request a black luxury cab. It eventually turned into the app we have now with people trying to make ends meet. It was and is a taxi service.
Straight from Wikipedia.

This is how I remember it in the early days on the East Coast. Uber was pretty expensive and always a large black luxury car. The drivers were very professional too and dressed up.
