You just articulated basically every complaint I have about buying anything from Amazon. It seems unarguably true that I can’t buy anything from them if I can’t find it. So, why is it so hard to search for anything I don’t already know the exact name of?

- krustyburger 7y agoSo much of the result of a search is now explicitly advertising. Amazon now has a new incentive to sell ads and display those ads as often as possible, whereas before their only goal was to return relevant results to the customer making the search.
- pmiller2 7y agoYou can say the same about Google search, yet their organic results are still quite relevant. Isn’t Amazon supposed to be focusing on the customer?
