I just canceled my Amazon Prime membership, something I was almost afraid of. Phew, it's nice to have that off my back.

I've been shopping less and less at Amazon anyway and barely used prime video, so I'll probably won't even notice the difference.

It a shame though that there is no good alternative that covers the entire Europe. There are some regional retailers like Alza, Allegro, but I don't know of any tha managed to roll out in all EU countries

I started ordering from specialized smaller vendors who often have much better quality products. In doing so I access shops all around Europe without much regard for the country in which they reside.

Done the same a few months back and have resisted buying anything from them since.

Got rid of the contrition from supporting that tool, and I find myself actually buying less now which is a win for me and the planet.
