the thing about instacart/uber/taskrabbit/etc is that it’s gotten the most ridiculous urban liberals so accustomed to the idea of having literal servants, but in a totally atomized and depersonalized way where you get to pretend you’re progressive and actually don’t have servants— g a b y (@gabydvj) April 28, 2021
Yeah, the algorithmic oppression of basically requiring 5 stars from everyone despite not being the psychology of how those star systems work for people definitely feels like it has shades of servitude, grovelling and going beyond what's expected because one shitty customer in a bad mood could tank your rating.
Also UberEats is pretty huge here in Europe and that's not just food delivery, but literally go to the shop for me, chop chop!
