Amazon is not a secret weapon, poison pill maybe?

This is a company that is actively shooting itself in the foot on all fronts and by the time they realize it’s gone too far they won’t be able to turn the ship fast enough.

People desperately want Amazon to be failing but it just isn't. They made 30 billion in profit in 2023. The rumors of Amazon's demise are greatly exaggerated.

>>BadHum+x02
It’s not that people are wanting them to fail, just that they are being so anti everything whilst their competitors amass.

I’ve got friends who’ve moved from AWS-centric roles to Azure-centric, prime is a dead product walking, twitch is unprofitable, Alexa is dead, and their original business is squeezing users, drivers, and employees. A strong viable Amazon.com alternative and they are done.

Sure, a store where you can buy literally everything and have it delivered in days, and they're done.

You've just described a whole slew of online stores, their logistics aren't on par yet, but they will be.

Logistics is definitely Amazon's biggest moat. Second biggest would probably be their customer service.

Customer service is just a bot, and anyone can have one of those
