      Unfortunately it’s very difficult not to support Amazon indirectly because they make a lot of their money from AWS, which a large fraction of the internet runs on.

        don’t let perfect be the enemy of evil. punching back a behemoth corporation whose policies actively hurt people is significantly better than just letting them steamroll you.

      Thankfully I’ve managed to buy any sorta niche stuff I needed from literally anywhere else.

      A cursory glance at Amazon revealed it’s basically a bloated corpse stuffed with trash at this point.

      I’d put more trust in careful Ebay shopping to avoid straight-up fakes anymore.
