Taxi companies need to own the car, pay for maintenance, pay wages for the driver, insurance, etc.
Ride-sharing apps offload all of the taxi-company maintenance overhead costs to the gig-driver while only paying about 50% of the fare.

This is a malignantly intentional ignorance, and it will spread.
The Civil Rights Act was signed in 1964. That was only 60 years ago.
There are pictures of Bernie Sanders being arrested while protesting segregation. Bernie isn't the oldest serving senator, and there are currently serving senators who have received "F" grades on their civil rights voting records, despite claiming to support civil rights.
I think it is entirely accurate to state that America is a bigoted nation.
Abbott was the Texas AG and helped re-write legislation that reduced payouts on medical torts almost 30 years after he sued because he was paralyzed by a falling tree.

I agree with you.
If OP doesn't like to be called Q, they should verbalize that to their friend group and the people they interact with. They should also make it known that it is just their preference, and they do not speak for anyone else. But to say that I shouldn't identify as Q because they are offended with the label... OP needs to get over themselves, go touch some grass, and stop trying to police the identities of others in an attempt to push marginalized people out of the larger community of marginalized.
I've seen them in seven States in the US, also on a trip to Canada. I lived in Germany for a while, and used them there - and Austria.
Maybe you should try traveling and open up that closed mind. Expand those horizons.
In my hypothetical example, when you pictured stalls, you pictured them with only toilets inside. You didn't even consider that there could be a stall with just a urinal.
You may enjoy sidling to the trough and gazing at your competition, but some of us appreciate not having creeps trying to size us up.
One of the things that drives Reddit as a social media platform is the anonymity.
Once you start tying monetization mechanisms to pay users for content, similar to YouTube or Instagram, you lose the anonymity.
Reddit is already walking the path to destroy everything that made it a different social media platform.
Make them all unisex. If it's a large facility with a bunch of stalls or a small facility for only one person, make them all unisex.
Someone is holding that bag, though. Unfortunately for us, the people holding that bag have the kind of money to make our lives hell just for a fraction of a percentage point of value for their bottom line.
I'm on a Pixel 7, Android 13.
So far, I like Jerboa.
Maybe a bug:
When I go to all, I get a few posts loaded. I scroll to the bottom, and nothing else loads. I have to click into a post, swipe back to all, and then more posts will load, allowing me to scroll.
Feature requests: A version of all that automatically filters out tagged nsfw or porn. And maybe a version of all that automatically limits to tagged nsfw.
An ability to minimize or hide what I am subscribed to in the menu. Ie, I need to click on subscriptions to load what servers I am subscribed to, instead of them being top loaded and visible in the menu.

The work-supervision to prevent slackers thing is only part of the problem, and pretty small.
The biggest issue is the huge amount of money these companies pay for real estate, and how much the commercial real estate market means to the overall economy.
All of this is just sabre-rattling in an attempt to return to the pre-covid status quo, while these companies will soon be shedding their corporate office spaces to reduce their operating costs.
