I've read at least one article suggesting that Square and Clover et al are kind of exacerbating the problem by letting/encouraging business owners to make default tips higher. And I'm sure it's pretty obvious that owners are not super inclined to increase base pay when they can bump suggested tips and pass that cost onto the customer without making things look more expensive.

Since when? I'm not even that old, and I've heard most of my life that 18% means "you did a stellar job" and 10% was "not great, not terrible."

I've always tried to tip 20% minimum anyway to support my fellow humans, usually closer to 25-30% especially on smaller bills, but these days it's frustrating because it almost takes away any of the joy of tipping extra well when it's already on there as a suggestion.

These days I'm all about getting rid of it and just paying a living wage and making the prices match reality.

Some people have tongue tie and might have a much harder time lifting their tongue, sometimes being completely impossible. It's usually corrected in babies these days right around birth, but isn't always and could definitely explain the confusion.

Wait till you hear what strings are under the hood. Integers in a trench coat!

Unfortunately, no. They were already losing lots of money. They are now losing less money than they were before even after people left. Which is generally what happens if you're losing money for every subscriber and then subscribers leave.

Not sure where the positive news is, unless you're a Disney shareholder. They dropped subscribers and are now losing less money. They care about the money, not really the subscribers. This pattern will likely continue.
