I didltched amazon for multiple reasons.
The horrible working conditions of the people that actually package and ship the products I purchased, the anti-competitive nature of their platform, and the insane amount of shit that you find combined with the impossibility of searching or browsing their website for any product whatsoever.
I still have to use it for work because it's the only one that our corporate overseers have approved and I fucking hate it.
It's impossible to have any amount of ethics and shop online any more.
It's also very fucking difficult to shop in person and have ethics.
It's nearly impossible to have ethics and exist in America.
