> Have you... actually ordered from a restaurant that's done self-delivery for more than 5 minutes?
Yes, of course. Aside from the example I gave where I used their self-delivery for 10 years before switching to this new gen.
And I suppose I’ve ordered from about 500 self-delivery restaurants, although I don’t keep a log.
It sounds like you’ve had some bad experiences and they aren’t like mine. I have had really bad experiences with doordash and grubhub where they wouldn’t fix problems, but Uber is about 75% responsive that is so much better than self-delivery.
From first principles it seems like self-delivery can’t compete unless they are really into delivery. Because they can’t scale well beyond their drivers on hand and it’s not possible for them to send out 10 orders at once, etc
