Personally, when I order something these days, it’s been on eBay. It kind of sucks though, and half of the packages still arrive in Amazon boxes anyway…?
Where do you liked to order stuff from, that’s not Amazon?

I’ve not ordered anything from Amazon since September last year… cancelled Prime in 2025 to boycott USA. !boycottus@lemmy.ca
Small electronic components, random plastic doodads, SD cards - Aliexpress, Amazon sells the same stuff at a markup, so all I need is a tiny bit of patience to replace my biggest Amazon spend category. In Vancouver there’s no competition outside of Lee’s, but in Toronto I go to Sayal Electronics.
Computer equipment - Memory Express (your local PC parts chain).
Big purchases - from manufacturers’ website or brick and mortar retail.
Groceries - From the grocery store. Costco for local cucumbers, milk and cereal, and the local grocery store for BC grown other food
Books - Indigo, or the random roadside book shop on Vancouver Island or one of the many bookstores. Or, the public library. Digital books: the high seas. Audio books: plenty of digital storefronts online.
Are there categories I’m forgetting Amazon is used for?
