Looking for info on how to get from OAK hub to terminal for the commuter challenged.

I used Uber when I was commuting out there. Worked going from FedEx to the terminal, but not the other way.

I've actually walked to the passenger terminal from FedEx. It's really not that bad if the weather is good and it's during daylight.

Services like Uber will be not allowed pickup at the terminal.
Even cab companies out there only buy the VERY expensive badges for a subset of their fleet. Then only those particular cars are allowed pickup at OAK.
At least that is the word a few years ago.

Cheap but long time way is take the new BART train from OAK passenger side to the BART Coliseum. FedEx runs a parking shuttle every half hour from OAK hub to BART Coliseum.

used friendly cab, I think they were listed on the pairing, in the past to go from rental car facility to terminal. They were familiar with hub to terminal. $5-$10 if I recall.

Walk it!

I commuted in and out of there for two years on FDX. Walked back and forth every time walking to and from the main terminal and FDX. Takes about 20 mins(ish) towing a bag. Little over a mile in distance and sidewalks the whole way.

Walk. It's not bad at all...there's a safe pedestrian/bike path or sidewalk.
