“Why, oh why, is the city’s political elite obsessed with micromanaging food-delivery apps? So much so that it waxes indignant even when it’s simply reversing its own diktats to the (minor) industry. A new law now going into effect forces the apps to put the ‘option’ to tip your deliveryman before checkout. At least two main apps — UberEats and DoorDash — presented the gratuity screen after you got your food, a practice they adopted to comply with previous guidance from City Hall. (Not to mention: Tipping the delivery guy when he delivers worked just fine for decades.) And of course this follows years of City Council laws imposing a hefty minimum wage on this casual work.” (01/28/27)
