These services are great to help manage your time and attention. Of course, there is one big downside to these things: price. Using services like this aggressively is very expensive compared to doing laundry yourself, cooking more often, or using fixed cost transit (e.g. MTA or bike). Folks that can't afford to spend on those services tend to do it themselves or form close knit contacts that they can pool with to do some of these things (pooling laundry, sharing leftovers from cooked meals, etc.).
