It's not about the price YOU, the customer pay. It's about the scumbaggery that these lowlives perpetrate on restaurant owners. The best one is how they impersonate the restaurants online, hijacking their online presence and setting up fake numbers as the restaurants' own.

Never use food-delivery services. Not only are they scammers, but they (and this is first-hand observation) mess with, eat, or take your food into a public shitter.

It's actually also about the price the customer pays. I've seen plenty of restaurants raise their prices across the board (even if you call them up yourself and order carryout) because DoorDash et al take such a high cut. It's one thing if only DoorDash orders were more expensive, but those fuckers made it expensive for all of us, even those that don't use DoorDash.

I was responding to the OP's willingness to pay extra for DoorDash. I agree with your complaint.

Of course some infantile shut-in or DoorDash shill downmodded my straightforward observation. Every day this site descends into Redditude.
