How much do people tip? (lemmy.ca)

I'm so lost on how to tip anymore. I remember back when 12% pre-tax was considered a really good tip, but now the kiosks recommend 20-25% (which is usually ON TOP of tax).

I already don't tip anywhere I'm not sitting down with service, but 20-25% is crazy when I'm just trying to get fed.

i only tip 20% or more if it's a delivery, and the weather is shit. if its a sit down restaurant 12-15% is fine.

at fast food & coffee places I ask if they actually get the tips(they will usually say no, honestly) and then tip or not accordingly.
