Also the thing you're actually looking for will be on the 3rd result page, buried under a dozen vaguely related items that are the site ''recommendation '' even though you typed the exact reference of the thing you were looking for.

Oh, and those filters on the side? Forget it, they'll remove results you might actually care to view

I like that I'm financially comfortable enough to pay for shipping and not give Bezos a cent.

[–] bob_lemon@feddit.org 9 points 2 days ago

Amazon offering free shipping is a large part of why the parcel industry became a hellhole of semi-illegal subcontractors even here in Germany where labour laws exist.

Was the cookies popup really 3 years ago already?
