The fees are not as apparent if you don't live alone. Imagine living with 4 roommates, all of whom want to order together. The fees and tips are divided among the 4 and become almost invisible.

YMMV but my 3 housemates and I order a lot of delivery and have maybe coordinated 1 delivery to split fees despite having similar schedules, food tastes, and getting along pretty well. Food delivery is about getting the exact food you want when you want, and with a group of people that won't line up very often.

Sometimes groups will order, but in my experience they do not.

I would have thought people who need to have roommates would be extremely price sensitive.
