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’s often impossible (or wildly worse) now.
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
It’s funny because when I bring up the same thing but with food delivery everyone loses their minds.
I refuse to use food delivery either
The closest I have gotten was in a small place where the delivery drivers were actually employed by the company
