Talk about misguided hate. Good grief. There's nothing hipster or dbag about it. It's an alternative form of taxi that's cheaper and in many situations considerably faster and more convenient. Unless you are in a *MAJOR* city like Chicago or NY it's not that easy to get a cab. Some places it's over 20 minutes to get one. I live in a city of 400,000 and if you want a night out without worrying about a DUI Lyft is half the price of a taxi and I'm home 20 minutes faster.
But it's actually better and cheaper than a taxi (in most cases). :hmm:
Edit: As an example, you can book a cab for a trip to the airport here a day in advance and the assholes still don't show up or even call to let you know they aren't coming. They know you are going to the airport, which means you could miss a flight. They don't give a shit.
There's a reason Uber and Lyft are popular, and it's because cab companies are fucking terrible.
