Yesterday, I’ve cancelled the Amazon Prime subscription, and I feel really good about it (even though the subscription is really low in Poland, I just didn’t want to have it).
I’ve replaced it with few other things:
- allegro smart subscription (to save on deliveries from Polish local online marketplace allegro.pl)
- an occasional subscription just for one month when I want to watch some specific show (or even find and purchase DVDs for things I like to rewatch often)
- smaller online/offline relatil shops whenever applicable
For anything else I’ve never been using Amazon services, so it is kind of no-brainer for me ¯_(ツ)_/¯
The US suburban setup is defintiely built for car dependency and big box stores, which makes Amazon way harder to quit than in most European cities with their walkable neighborhoods and local shops.
