They’re cool. I absolutely would get one. But not for nearly twice the price. It’s just far too much of a premium.

I used to work at U-Haul. In a collage area. U-Haul refused to adjust prices for a couple critical weeks twice a year. So people would have to drive 90min+ to get a truck that was the wrong size.

It was great being yelled at by people all day.

But if people knew up front they weren’t getting a truck, they could make other plans. Instead they only found out the day before their move, that they were screwed.

In the case of Lyft, what’s better: Knowing you’ll be able to get a ride for 2-3x the price? Or finding out while standing on the curb, your normal priced ride won’t be there for an hour or two?

I would imagine dark mode as just white on black, instead of the black on white.

Proton is a solid option

I really wanted to like gestures. I used them for over a year.
Even after all that, switching back bottom navigation immediately felt right.
