Comment on Doordash deserves it's fate
psx_crab@lemmy.zip 2 weeks agoSomeone would need to host and manage that thing, in the case of dispute. For the gig worker, they would need someone to know that these alternatives exists, and that require marketing and marketing cost money.
But i bet someone can make a cooperative of this service and only run locally, and restaurant and delivery worker can both help promote their alternative.

At least some local alternatives sort of like that do exist, eg. www.noshdelivery.co/about_us. But yeah, there is the issue of managing it and overhead since I guess probably part of what they do is vetting and dispute resolution, so it might be hard for it to be more decentralized. Maybe eventual convergence on shared tools and protocols though?
