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.

These days most tips have to be handed in to the company and divvied up/taxed. So tipping the driver/server doesn’t help them as much unless they’re skimming.
