No. We’re boycotting Amazon.

jvmoorewnc.bsky.social•34 days ago

@wired.com I subscribe to your newsletter, but I am not renewing. You push Amazon way too much for my comfort. I don’t buy anything from Amazon, and I won’t. Bezos is a greedy man and I don’t support greed.

randyrandlemann.bsky.social•34 days ago

Y'all have been doing great work but this is a mistake. Not giving a dime to them or any other oligarch owned business.

selale.bsky.social•34 days ago

Like I am ever giving Bezos another dime.

hmrhoward.bsky.social•34 days ago

Can't we just buy the books from the authors more directly? Boycott Amazon & the horrid billionaire oligarchy

meyercarol.bsky.social•34 days ago

Or, you can shop on 26 April, Independent Bookstore Day which "coincidentally" overlaps with Amazon's sale week. https://www.bookweb.org/independent-bookstore-day-2025-exclusives-catalog

How about not running an affiliate commission operation to feed the billionaire, please

birch7993.bsky.social•34 days ago

I'm not buying anything on Amazon.

ronh999.bsky.social•34 days ago

Time to unfollow WIRED because they push Amazon.

stuntlover.bsky.social•34 days ago

Or, counterpoint, FUCK AMAZON

stinkyswampbeast.bsky.social•34 days ago

Fuck amazon. I will never spend money with them again after their attrocious treatment of their employees and seeing bozo at the inauguration.

vtboomer.bsky.social•34 days ago

Buy local. Period. Independent bookstores. Buy NOTHING from Amazon.

Can't support Amazon.

pofoto.bsky.social•34 days ago

Don't buy them from Amazon.

Buy them from independent bookstores.

mainedpcdoc.medsky.social•34 days ago

https://Bookshop.org is one way to do this online.

tbluvoter.bsky.social•34 days ago

Yes, and @libro.fm for audio books.

jeanieelle.bsky.social•34 days ago

Byeee

mike-warner.bsky.social•34 days ago

Nope. Amazon rots.

mossfen.net•34 days ago

I think I won’t.

emmaparks.bsky.social•34 days ago

You'll probably need your money to survive this administration.
Also... Boycott Amazon!

merydeath.bsky.social•33 days ago

Shillin' for the villains.

How much does Bezos pay you, anyways?

coulgirl.bsky.social•34 days ago

Stop promoting the increase wealth of billionaires. Haven’t you heard we’re boycotting Amazon.

philipdottir.bsky.social•34 days ago

Please don’t push Amazon… Ugh. Can we acknowledge that the broligarchs are destroying our country AND in doing so stop supporting their businesses?

usernamem123.bsky.social•34 days ago

Wtf wired? Amazon? Really?

slstrait.bsky.social•34 days ago

I love how every comment here is basically screw Bezos and Amazon, and half of the comments throw in an admonishment of Wired for the post. Do better, Wired.

tbluvoter.bsky.social•34 days ago

Please offer alternatives to Amazon which many of us refuse to use.

bartbruijnesteijn.bsky.social•34 days ago

Promoting books and possible sales opportunities great, but stay away from Amazon given their labor & sales policies and supporting Trump with anti-DEI a.o

diogenesgrief.bsky.social•34 days ago

Boycott Amazon! ✊

katisaliquid.bsky.social•34 days ago

Jeff Bezos can’t get my money anymore. I will go to https://bookshop.org.

chrisstapper.bsky.social•34 days ago

Agree with all other comments, avoiding Amazon as a policy here.
