fun story. I did this to the Amazon AI shopping helper because it was literally popping up on every page after I opened a product. it asked me how it could help.
so, as one does, I told it to fuck off. that was the best way it could “help me”. though it didn’t do it initially, a few days later it stopped doing it.
now I know what some of you are thinking, “if you didn’t shop there you wouldn’t have this problem.” and while yes, that’s true, I don’t shop there out of convenience. I shop there because all the odd parts and pieces I buy would cost me 3x as much just in shipping costs alone, if I could even source the parts from somewhere else online. that also ignores the fact that most vendor stores will still fulfill your order through Amazon, even when purchasing through their e-store.
so, do I support Amazon? as little as I possibly can. would I use an alternative to Amazon? absolutely.
