So maybe save some of that anger for the giant corporations that pay beaucoup bucks to float their shitty ghost kitchens to the top of search results, using the same gamesmanship. The money they spend has far more influence than individuals do.
And with all due respect if "success" in being a restaurateur is mostly catering to influencers who care more about how your food looks than tastes and are often wasteful and don't even eat any of it, all while overworking the restaurant staff to make it happen... Fuck success.
Makes you wonder if a "Take a selfie with our prop food" menu item that was £2-3 would be a good idea. Deal with influencer crap quickly, still make a bit of money off it, and keep the actual customers who want to eat your food happy.
