@Fenng: Those who shout about a surplus of delivery drivers turn around and accuse platforms of using algorithms to squeeze ride-hailing drivers, saying they won't let drivers earn too much and use algorithms to distribute orders to other drivers. If there is a surplus of delivery drivers, isn't there also a surplus of ride-hailing drivers? If orders are all given to a few drivers, are the rest supposed to live on air? Why at this point don't they say that there are too many ride-hailing drivers so everyone can't make money?

The article criticizes the double standard: people claim there is a surplus of delivery drivers while accusing platforms of using algorithms to exploit ride-hailing drivers, and questions why they don't admit that the oversupply of ride-hailing drivers is also causing everyone to be unable to make money.

@10xmylife: Compared to overseas, is the independent site ecosystem in China really that bad? If so, what are the reasons? When people search for a brand, they look on WeChat, Weibo, Douyin, Xiaohongshu, Taobao, etc., rarely on Baidu. Merchants also mostly rely on platforms rather than building their own official websites. I think Baidu itself being terrible is one reason, but there must be deeper causes…

Discusses why China's independent site (brand self-built official website) ecosystem is weaker than abroad, arguing that users mainly search for brands on platforms like WeChat, Weibo, and Douyin rather than Baidu, and that merchants rely on platforms instead of building their own official websites.
