It also doesn't have to be all or nothing. Even if there is some specific issue that keeps you bound to Amazon, seeking out alternatives the rest of the time is still an improvement.

I know someone who has extreme difficulty taking pills and who frequently needs pain relievers to function. The only thing they have ever found that works for them is the Walmart brand Tylenol (aka tiny lol). They don't buy anything else from Walmart on principle, but thos pills are a necessity.

That said, in my experience at least, while Amazon's shopping experience has gotten significantly worse over time, smaller local and regional businesses have been making things much better over the last few years. It's easier to find what I need on the website of my local hardware store than Amazon, with prices that are as good or better on most things, and without the glut of trash items clogging my search. I can even get 2 hour delivery if I need it. I can't get a fucking pizza delivered to me but I can have a socket wrench and a change of underwear here at a moment's notice.

I can't say that there is a better option available to everyone for anything they need. But I would bet that there are good alternatives available the vast majority of the time.
