I'll chime in.
Some of my extended family are pretty deep into covid conspiracies, and it makes me sad. Nonetheless, I try to read the crap they post to understand the ecosystem they are soaking their brains in. When I forget the site links, I have no way of finding them on Google. But if I use Bing, I can easily find them. This, to me, is fascinating, because it appears that deliberate censorship is in place. On the one hand, I understand suppressing nonsense, on the other hand, who decides what's nonsense?
I still find stuff well enough on Google.
As for Amazon, I grow tired of their gimmicks. Every now and then they sneakily set some 3rd party store to sell an item by default, but you have to pay very close attention to catch this. I guess that's good for the store? But it splits my order up into different boxes and delivery times and that annoys me. I'm pretty sure those companies grease the hinges with a few bucks to get the default spot, and I can't say I like that. Amazon is still great for books, and as much as I love walking into a physical book store, some books are almost 50% off brand new online, so I can't justify going local when it comes to stuff like programming books. Will I pay $17 to get a book in-store as opposed to $12 online? Sure, I can live with that. Will I pay $60 instead of $30? Sorry. I have otherwise found that Amazon is really not much cheaper for most things, but the savings they offer on books and car parts are pretty great.
