I know I regularly shoot myself in the foot on many fronts, but I still stand by my #BoycottAmazon stance.

I like @pluralistic's "dandelion" metaphor (h/t https://sciences.social/@toolbear@union.place) but Amazon is not on my radar (I don't buy, advertise, promote or reap any benefit from them, other than my publisher having them as one of their many distributors).
