When women riders and drivers told us they wanted more control over how they ride and earn, we listened. That feedback led to Women Preferences, features designed to give women the choice to ride with other women. Since our first pilots last summer, we’ve heard just how much that choice matters—from feeling more comfortable in the back seat to more confident behind the wheel.

Don’t say that. I came here to get away from those twats and speak with at least somewhat rational people.

    Good luck, I will be the first to say that after my experiences, I am downright irrationally horrified by humans, and I can't handle letting them do anymore damage to me. I prefer the struggle over letting myself be in the hands of others again.

    It sucks and will only get worse as time progresses. Lemmy is very anti-woman, pro gun, and pro violence.

    It does have less capitalistic bootlicking bastards, but only slightly less.

    If you're worried about capitalism, things don't look great here either: the top post in my feed right now is a corporate PR release.

    (It's this post.)

    Yeah, corporations don't even have to do the dirty work as people will happily parrot the bullshit they say for free. A great example on Lemmy of this is Proton. For some reason it really brings the bootlickers out to defend it.
