I've noticed this. But tempting as it is to #DeleteUber, am I not mostly just hurting local taxi drivers who keep 75% of the revenue?

Not if you use Lyft.

Unfortunately, Lyft doesn't operate in the UK where I live.

But if you #DeleteUber won't your money be going to the taxi drivers? I'm not sure I understood your question.

They're using the term 'taxi drivers' to refer to the Uber drivers, not to local licensed taxi operators.

In the UK, Uber cars are local licenced private hire vehicles with the big "Pre-booked fares only" sticker on the front doors. You have to be licensed to drive for Uber[0].
