I'm a new GrapheneOS user and stopped using Uber as altogether. Taxis aren't that bad where I'm at, and cheaper than Uber

I wish I could stop using them for these rare occasions I need a transport.

Taxi across the town is £20, Uber usually 5-10. There are no other providers.

Taxi from my airport (some 15 miles away) is £60-80, Uber usually £30-ish. Public transportation (2 trains + 2 buses) over £50.

I wish I had an option.

  • I get public transport being more "difficult" than uber, but more expensive too? Where are you from if you don't mind me asking?

    • Yeah, it's more expensive - in this case because of the changes and separate operators on every part of the journey. I could potentially swap one train for a bus and then take different train and skip one of the buses saving some £5 but extending trip by about a hour at least.
