I mean Amazon is a hard service to switch from.

Nearly everything you need is available to order from there. Now of course whatever is the next best thing can still get your address and name (unless you use an alt name and address) but I’m talking about apps or services that have better privacy polices regarding storing personal information.

Your local grocery store wherever possible.

See that’s a good response and I appreciate that idea :)

Plus delivery usually takes less than an hour when you do it yourself.

It's less green tho. Everybody going to the store vs. one vehicle going door to door.

For most of the US, true. Though I think it's fuzzier if you work it into a commute or other errands. I've moved a lot and favor places that have grocery stores, libraries, parks, etc within walking distance. Get groceries and a brisk walk. Win win.

Yeah but if we're talking about Amazon, we're not talking about groceries
