Why should anyone install the amazon app? I mean… it's a website (if one realy must…)
Amazon is a computer activity for sure. But I try not to use it at all. I've been fairly successful cutting them out of my life.
Even worse. The Amazon app is trash that sometimes doesn't work at all, but the Amazon website works well on mobile.
I actually find the app is very nice compared to the mobile website on a pixel 9, of course I'm on GrapheneOS so I can enjoy apps from shitty companies without worrying too much about it doing shady things.
Although as of the past week, they've been injecting a shop with Alexa ad when you first open the app that slows you down by a few seconds, which is extremely infuriating.
I'm one of those shitty human beings who, unfortunately, orders fairly often from Amazon.
