Hey everyone - I'm Alex - a PM at Bliq. For almost a year now, I've taking a lot of deep dives into the bustling world of ridesharing. From surge pricing algorithms to the fine balance between passengers and drivers, I'm curious to learn about everything-rideshare. But enough about me! I want to hear from YOU. 🎤 What's your favorite ridesharing platform and why? Is it all about getting the cheapest fare, or are you more into innovative features, ethical practices, or just a really cool user interface? Maybe you've found the ultimate hack to beat the surge pricing or discovered a hidden gem of a ridesharing platform. Or maybe you've been on both sides of the car, as a driver and a rider. 🚘 Share your wisdom!🙏

While the question is well though out, where I live, I only get to pick the app that has a driver arrive faster than 15 minutes. Sometimes it's Uber, sometimes it's Bolt then fallback to the StarTaxi app. It's the same for scooters too. I pick which one is the nearest and completely disregard the provider/app. I don't know how much the service costs but usually the distances are too small for the price difference to be significant.

@alex_rus understandable for you that your main app is not a rideshare one, but a taxi one. how about when you travel? what's your go-to app to look for a ride to the airport? :D
