Calling something the uber of anything is a huge fucking red flag. Uber is well known for exploiting its workers, skirting laws, and other shady practices. Why would we believe this will connect people to quality affordable healthcare?

This exists to make the Salyer rich. It is not a benevolent setup if she refers to herself as an entrepreneur. This is her inserting herself as a middleman to suck money out of the childcare system. The app already encourages the providers to price their services based on the surrounding area, which is either encouraging them to be underpaid like uber drivers or to inflate prices so Salyer can take a cut, or both. It is already bragging about manipulating prices in that article.

So many red flags, I just pointed out the obvious.

Everyone loves to complain, and the few people who actually do something to address the problems we're dealing with get shit all over. I welcome you to open a rival childcare service and prove me wrong

I only shit on the obviously horrible ones that are exploiting a problem for personal profit.

What beneficence are you providing the world?

Raising a child, supporting family and friends in need, being a positive and supporting coworker. I oppose shitty conservative policies that negatively impact others and while I'm not successful in everything I do I have an overall positive impact on society.

I don't make apps that suck money out of the childcare system and encourage price fixing. I see that as massively worse than any positive benefits the person who created the app provides to society.

What benefit do you provide to the world?
