One channel is not more independent than none
A good piece on whether London's black cabs could do without third-party apps argues that those apps function as additional digital ranks: switching them off does not restore independence, it reduces the number of places a driver's availability can be found. A driver only earns from passengers who can reach them.
The article lands on diversification carrying less commercial risk than isolation — while warning that too much demand concentrating through too few intermediaries exposes drivers to changes in commission, allocation and strategy they do not control. Both are true at once, and the resolution sits in the same paragraph: develop your own direct channels and stay reachable through others.
Where we sit
The second half of that is the harder half. Staying reachable through others should not mean depending on any one of them.
Omnia is built for the party with vehicles and not enough work. Connect once, and be reachable by any source of work you have agreed to accept — on the terms you set, in the areas and at the times you choose.
