I know there are similar communities like !buyitforlife@slrpnk.net about finding products that you don’t break after a year, and any number of buy<insert_country_here> communities. I’m looking for a community specifically for finding reputable products that aren’t sold on Amazon, regardless of where the seller or buyer is, and regardless of the ethos of the seller beyond making quality products.
Edit:
There’s also !deamazon@piefed.social, but that’s more about general anti-Amazon sentiment than specifically helping steer people away from Amazon’s online retail monopoly.
some brand name items can be bought directly from the online store’s company website, like for phone cases, screens, toothpastes that arnt well known brand names. most of them require you to buy a certain amount in order to get a discount or free delivery, it might be more expensive than going on amazon or other online retailers.
