As an American living in China, I feel the same way. I also use Didi almost every day. It's so easy to pay too (using WeChat, AliPay, etc.), and there's no expectation of tipping. Kind of like a "black box" view of the payment process. It's even better than using regular taxis from the standpoint of giving feedback too. If I took a regular taxi without using Didi, there's almost no way of leaving feedback, other than calling the taxi company, which wouldn't do much. At least with the app, I might get a coupon to use on a future ride.
