I have never used Uber or any ride sharing app, and I don’t feel like I’m missing anything. When we travel we either rent a vehicle, use local public transit, or have friends .

It's a good backup of other services fail, or if you need a backup ride when busses are too spaced out or too indirect.

I try to avoid them except that my city's taxis charged me $120 for half of what would have been a $50 Uber ride (I left the cab early) so I don't trust them anymore.
