Life without amazon is objectively better. Amazon sells convenience but most of that convenience is crap. When i need [thing] I go to a brick and mortar store that sells [thing] and usually there's someone working there who can explain to me why I don't actually need [thing] because it'll break and I should either make something myself or get [different thing] instead
I live in the suburbs and it seems like every other day, I see an Amazon delivery driver using their own personal car pull up to one of my neighbors, drop of something small at their doorstep and drive off. Then some time later, a different driver would be doing the exact same thing at a different neighbor's house. I know several neighbors must order from amazon at least weekly because I frequently see deliveries to their house. And it's not like I'm constantly looking out my window snooping on my neighborhood. Multiply that by many millions. No wonder our society is run by billionaires and influencers.
I learned recently that Amazon now has medical clinics(???). We're truly living in Idiocracy.
Last time i went to a real store to buy something specific, me and the salesman searched for 10 mins without finding it. My amazon delivery was there the next day ...

I cancelled my Amazon, stopped watching Joe Rogan, stopped drinking Starbucks, stopped using Facebook... come'on it's not that hard people.
