Amazon Advice - eviltoast

With all of the sketchy products Amazon has and their bad practices, I’m really considering getting rid of Amazon. The only thing I will really miss is the fast shipping.

My reasoning is that I don’t use Prime benefits outside of shipping because I don’t play live service games anymore, and lots of local stores price match.

For those of you who have ditched Amazon(or not), what’s your reasoning and advice?

Any input is appreciated, thank you.

    I found myself using Amazon less and less for shipping, so when Prime Video started injecting ads, I canceled and haven’t looked back.

    My solution is that I buy my products in stores, now. I hate it, but that’s what it’s come to. The Amazon deals are not what they once were, so there’s barely a difference in cost. Plus, with so much garbage just flooding Amazon’s search results, it admittedly helps to be able to see a product before choosing to buy it.
