I understand the economics of it isn't attractive for a lot of the drivers and this is the root of a lot of the issues .. but as a user it's really become so much worse in London than it used to be - will do most things to avoid Uber these days , hard to rely on it ( and even if you can get a car the prices have become rather 'adventurous' quite a lot of the time )
Probably another victim of covid in that earning potential was decimated for long periods of time, so many of the drivers found other jobs and have no intention of returning to it.

Many companies were absolutely crying out for delivery drivers at that time, which would've been a pretty simple transition.
