It’s in companies best interest to make things affordable, but that also cuts into their bottom line.

They are a commerce company and it was never really profitable. Complete trash of low quality on that site now.

Meanwhile, my company just signed a multi-million dollar deal with AWS.
The retail business will go up and down with the economy, with down markets creating buying opportunities; the cloud services will grow steadily for a long, long time.

Devils advocate that companies are fickle. One of the first places they find to cut are new investments and fixed capital expenditure. Many company’s build on AWS because they themselves are building totally new innovations not just migrating workflows from on-prem to cloud. In a recession that dries up to some degree. Long term tho, yeah pretty much a safe bet. Azure and Gcloud can’t compete

I beg to differ, i see many clients switch from AWS to Azure, so i think AWS might have a harder time in the future (but competition is good!)

Azure is objectively worse in every way and is more expensive. CIO’s only trust Microsoft because of the branding. “They make computers for the government so they must have the best security sand resiliency”

The growth wouldn’t be as fast as previous years tho. Companies are finally realizing how many unused and overpriced cloud services they’re using.

Stop ripping off your customers and things may improve. Just a thought...

How are they ripping off customers?

House water filters. One OEM for $37.50 from Amazon. Cheap knockoffs with incorrect filter specs pushed hard with multiple searches over days. A four pack from Home Depot with a replacement O-ring...$50.00. Free shipping. You tell me.

I've gotten dirt cheap, perfectly functional water filters from Amazon.

Shopping on Amazon is like searching on Google, if you know what you are doing it is the most powerful tool in the world. If you haven't a clue what you are doing then you are wasting your time.

Your anecdotal evidence counts and mine doesn't. Got it.

I'm encountering the opposite, $220 5 gal fence stain at home depot and $155 on Amazon.

Don't pick on one example! Usually most of the products Amazon gives every store run for their money.

true but everything is just going up due to “inflation.”

Amazon doesn’t sell items unless it’s their brand. Otherwise, they are just a shipping company. You bought from someone else and Amazon shipped it to you

Jesus fuck, with Both Bezos on Zuckerberg down for the count, Musk is poised to take over the world and a weird Star Wars Saga will begin as Elon forms himself into an intergalactic evil emperor

Sounds like a great porno.

And yes, it will eventually become porno

Yeah because you were price gouging us! I now shop at local stores mostly for my stuff, thank you Amazon.

Peak captialism: The peasants can't afford to buy anything anymore, and that's bad for our bottom line.
