I think I might cancel. I’m not watching ads and I’m not going to pay the extra $3/mo to opt out. I don’t know if I’d end up paying more than the subscription cost in shipping though…

Tbh i just have prime and pirat the stuff i want anyway, even if i technically have access to ot the “legal” way, because its just way easier to find what i want on the piracy site of my choice than on prime…
(i need the one day shipping pretty regularly so the money isn’t wasted)
Same, I have a handful of streaming services (mostly split with other households) because it’s easier to watch something right now than in 10 mins at the absolute minimum, or tomorrow, depending on the current status of high seas shipping lanes. But I’m not fucking watching ads. I’m paying for the service, fuck your ads.
I just wish they’d split off streaming from shipping.
20 Europbux or 17 Freedollars gets you a Read Debrid subscription for a year.
Tie it into Stremio and you’ve got everything right now.
Tie that into rclone and you’ve got yourself a fancy ‘backup’ for all those things you’ve streamed.
No VPN required.
Is this Real-Debrid or Read-Debrid? Google took me to one called Real and I wanted to make sure I got the right one
No one needs one day shipping. And the human toll that Amazon and their prime service takes on their workers should be enough for anyone to stop using their services wholesale.
When i say i need it than it is like that. And in my country its not that bad regarding their worker treatment, shure its not perfect but nothing compared to USA because there are laws here…
I don’t know where you live, but this year for Black Friday Amazon workers from over 30 different countries protested over inhuman working contditions. Countries included Argentina, Australia, Austria, Bangladesh, Belgium, Brazil, Cambodia, Canada, Czech Republic, France, Germany, Hungary, India, Japan, Netherlands, Poland, Slovakia, South Africa, Turkey and the U.K.

And anyway, even if they were treated well, you are still supporting a horrible company that exploits people globally.
Yes black Friday. But that’s a shitshow in all imaginable ways anyway, besides that its not that bad.
And yes i “support” it until i can find some else that can supply me small quantities of very specific things for a reasonable price in short time.
I don’t like Amazon, but they aren’t the worst either. Also, you use their stuff as well, Amazon isn’t just the web-shop, its also server hosting and other IT solutions, most stuff you use has some Amazon In it.
Yes I’m forced to used Amazon because AWS hosts a lot of the internet. I literally have no choice. If I had a choice I would avoid it.
But I don’t contribute to their horrible work conditions in their warehouses. And it’s disingenuous to say the protest is only about Black Friday. The protests were on Black Friday because that’s when it would have the biggest impact on Amazon.
Too bad that people always let small personal inconveniences get in the way of human rights.
