I was an early Amazon user and introduced many people to it (was nice to easily acquire books). Have deleted my account 15ish years ago and noticed weird mindsets people developed, thinking they cannot get products elsewhere, thinking that Amazon ships faster than others when using Amazon Prime, thinking Amazon has cheap products and so on.
replyShowed what make believes people have.
I'm a guy that is pretty lazy and spends most of his money on convenience and not having to do stuff. It's not even convenient.
It's always a bit scary what things people believe end up believing about completely depending on one company.
I think it is interesting you think that people are believing fiction about Amazon when it comes to convenience. This reminds of the AI debate. Some people think AI is great and others think it is stupid. Neither side can see the others perspective.
replyI've always said that the two day shipping is a useless amount of time. Two days is too long if it's an emergency and if it can wait two days it can wait a week or more.
replyWhat's it good for? Constant shopping addiction dopamine?
Well if you live in some areas (Greater Seattle any ways) it's often same-day arrival so it's even more addictive and useful.
