This! We have DoorDash in Australia but the drivers cannot see whether a tip is added (it usually isnt - because we have minimum wage laws here too). The stories I hear about them just ignoring the orders because they are shown there is a tip and that tip is not acceptable to them is ridiculous to me, it's a pay to win strategy that has no place in a supposed civil society.

I am fine overpaying (the restaurants need to cover the frankly ridiculous 30%+ fees they charge) AND then a delivery fee on top to sit on my fat ass in my jammies and have delicious food delivered to me. I am not fine with a bidding structure where my food might sit there cold until someone decides that my "tip" is acceptable
