Amazon: The same 31 products you don't want, again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again - eviltoast

Does anyone else go looking on amazon because they used to have loads of stuff, but now there’s just a few things over and over and over and they’re not quite what you wanted. It’s so full of promoted content and you keep thinking that somewhere on one of the pages there might be something new, but no, it’s these same products again and again.

    Amazon was never active in my neck of the woods, we had a local competitor. This was a bit shitty for a while, as it didn’t have the same reach Amazon had.

    When Amazon finally rented the market it was ok for a while and then enshittification came in.

    So we still use the competitor.

        Well the competitor is owned by the largest supermarket chain and they try to follow amazons buns model, so it’s kinda shitty and capitalistic all the same.

        But because it’s smaller in scale and doesn’t impact the silly chain that much it’s still mildly better (think Amazon right years ago.

        But for the time being it’s slightly better. I think it’s great that Amazon has a competitor that didn’t lose out.
