>In its emails to drivers, Instacart said drivers could still earn “$18 or even $20 or more per hour” based on its expectations for tips.

FFS. "We aren't going to pay you because the people that we are charging will hopefully make up the difference."

Less money to go around means eithet less jobs or the existing employees need to work more hours.
