I don't use Amazon for anything
I have never bought a thing from them
This shit only exists because of people being willing to pay extra, for other people to be exploited, so that they can enjoy some convenience
There was life before all these delivery services. They're not actually necessary
Cutting Amazon out of my life has improved my life a lot.
I now buy books from a local shop lead by a huge sci-fi and manga nerd. She's recommended so many great books I never would have found otherwise.
I try to buy as many things as possible locally, but sadly that isn't possible (or wildly worse) anymore.
But when I do buy online, I buy from smaller independent shops specializing on the thing I'm buying.
That's the thing:
It's actually really easy
People are lazy and are sadly willing to turn a blind eye to the fact that convenience for them comes at the cost of someone else being exploited
All so Bezos can get even more disgustingly rich
I agree OP calls it a horror but the truth is most people will accept it as long as convenient parcels still arrive. They didn't know the person and don't care. I was an amazon user but cut it out. I was fallible but changed.
Ask people if they would give up their parcels...most look at me like I am crazy.
