AirBNB is so good that it's half the size of Booking.com these days.
And Uber is still big but about 30% of the time in places I go to, in Europe, it's just another website/app to call local taxis from (medallion and all). And I'm fairly sure locals generally just use the website/app of the local company, directly, and Uber is just a frontend for foreigners unfamiliar with that.
Right but if you wanted to start a competitor it would be a lot easier today vs back then. And running one for yourself doesn’t really apply to these but spend magnitude difference wise it’s the same idea.
