Germany retail hell: Trying to avoid Amazon & Zalando. Even eBay orders end up shipping from Amazon warehouses.

Looking for swim gear - where do you actually shop?

I watched Prime Video for the first time in a while (to watch Gen V, season 2) and... Fucking Prime now has commercials, not before before the show, as I was expecting, but in the middle of the shows!

Those streaming platforms are forgetting that we signed up for them because they're only slightly more convenient than pirating platforms... Well, if they play ads, that convenience is gone and so is my subscription.

Si teniu un lector #Kindle, us animo a que l'allibereu (jailbreak). És realment molt fàcil i accessible per no-informàtics. Et permet tenir més control sobre el dispositiu, treure la publicitat d'Amazon, millorar-ne el funcionament i instal·lar-hi apps útils.

I'm canceling my Amazon Prime subscription because...

[Normal people] Amazon is destroying the environment, workers' rights, democracy...

Wow. I have not received a single black Friday promo Email this year. Haven't read any "news" articles about black Friday.

I don't know when black Friday is and I couldn't be less interested in knowing.

I must be doing something right in this personal escape from capitalism I'm doing, step by step.

Now, if only Christmas would be as easy to ignore. 🥲

"a new digital platform enabling your favorite independently owned bookstores to sell digital books, granting them a foothold in a marketplace long dominated by Amazon...100% of the profits generated by sales through those brick-and-mortar stores funnel directly back to them. Customers who don’t specify a store to support when purchasing e-books on Bookshop.org support indie shops anyway, since a third of the profit from those sales goes into a profit-sharing pool"
