I agree... and here's something weird (using DoorDash as an example):

1. Everybody says DoorDash doesn't pay their workers enough.

2. Everybody says DoorDash charges restaurants too much.

3. Everybody says DoorDash marks up the food too much.

4. Nobody is forced to use DoorDash, work for DoorDash, or sell on DoorDash.

5. DoorDash has never made a profit.

That's not very weird to me. It just means DoorDash's business model is unsuitable and that DoorDash shouldn't exist.

I think the weird part is that they still exist despite all this.
