Ordered 20+ groceries from Amazon on Prime Day. Today my order arrived with each item packaged separately.

I find it mildly infuriating that people still buy on Amazon 😅
It shouldn’t be on the individual consumers to avoid monopolies; we need antitrust enforcement; we need to break up Amazon.
It’s not just about the monopoly though. Their site is rife with counterfeits and is basically Wish now. Want a GE lightbulb? There’s a 50/50 chance you’re getting a counterfeit that isn’t UL tested so you don’t know it’s safe, and that’s if you can even find the product at all hidden between the random name generator company listings for random garbage that’s slightly similar to the search term you entered.

And if there was a competitor that sold only legit products without having to compete with AmazonBasics (who just steals designs and sells them for a cheaper price) or from JSOIY (who also steals designs), people would use them instead of Amazon.

A monopoly enables this behavior, since there are no other options.

Ok fair point.
