If that were the goal of the companies selling the food, sure. But I think the app does a good job of connecting food that would normally be thrown out with people who cant afford much. The corporation gets a dollar or two, the people get to eat. I understand that it's not as pure as giving it away for free, but the majority of these companies would not give it away but will do this, which I see as a net good.
Wow, that's some neolib bullshit.
This is a for profit business facilitating the profit of other business while targeting the most disadvantaged. It's another capitalist middleman.
Speaking as a user of the app, I'm grateful it exists, it's saved me thousands of dollars and made it a lot easier to survive in an expensive city.
I'll not find fault with the poor for choosing what's been made practical for them to choose.
I'll keep pointing out capitalist nonsense so we can collectively create a world where you're not worried about the cost of food anymore.
