    I don’t even know how those apps got popular. They practically double the price of your order and there’s no guarantee it will be hot or complete. I’m disabled and I’ll still make my way going to whatever place versus going through an app. The only reason I can think of is time saving (like getting it delivered to you at work so you don’t waste your break).

      I’ve thankfully broken the habit, but you get hooked on them. I first used it when I actually had coronavirus and then I wound up doing it regularly for almost two years. Convenience is addictive.

      I used them during covid, not specifically to avoid the virus (because I know it just passes the risk along), but because I was in the beginning of my transition in an unfriendly state so did not want to undo all of my work to boymode and at the time I was more financially stable so I could afford it. Always tipped well too.

      For the average situation it doesn’t make alot of sense.
