    For some time now I’ve been very successful at not buying anything from Amazon.

      I’ve been considering this as my New Years Resolution. I’m ashamed that I might be too weak to go through with it. The convenience is just so…manipulative and infantilizing. I am perfectly capable of buying anything I need from a physical store front.

        Yeah, buying from physical stores also helps your local economy. Otherwise there’s eBay and Aliexe (spelling?)

        Try sorting results by ‘price low to high’ and then watch as it completely ignores you - no - laughs in your fucking face - as it gives you results in whatever goddamn order it so desires.

        It might make it easier to give it up if you can fully realize that Amazon is now 100% in the business of fucking you over.
