I just try to act like these firms dont exist. I wont even open amazons website, but even if i did and couldn't find something anywhere else, i would just consider that item to not be available for purchase anywhere. I also refuse to receive anything that I can see is related to companies like these even for free, if its reasonable to do so and even then reluctantly. Nestle is fucking annoying about this since they actively try to hide their name under other brands they have control over.
Unfortunately most of the platforms you use, likely this one too, are hosted on AWS :/
The big money maker of Amazon.
It's impossible to get away from, which really sucks.
Yea, some things just can't be avoided. But its still important to even try to make an effort, maybe some day there will be competitor to aws for example. I would also be kind of content with aws if amazon just dropped the webstore and warehouse business, which they might if it stops making money. That might drive them to make stupid decisions with aws and create more room for competitors.
