Uber treated drivers better at that time.

Like I mentioned previously fares are pretty consistent over time, but driver pay is plummeting.

Same rides 8 months ago are paying 30-50% lower to the driver in my experience.

There could be many factors to that though. I mean first thing to ask would probably be did the amount of drivers increase substantially in the last 8-12 months? If so it would be just like any other market force; more available contractors with same amount of fares = cheaper bids required
