Likewise, cancelled in Feb because I'd like to buy from smaller merchants directly when possible. I can buy toilet paper from Amazon still and get free shipping, so... no loss, really? Amazon was already nagging me to bundle separate shipments together on "prime days", so it literally makes no difference to me.
The dark patterns on cancelling my subscription were so disgustingly manipulative that it made it really easy to be happy with my decision to leave, though. I admit to feeling a tinge of regret when I quit a service that politely allows me to cancel because that actually gives me some respect for the service. With Amazon, Spotify, Facebook, and Instagram, they try SO hard to make it impossible to leave that it cemented the decision completely in my mind and eroded the last bit of respect I had for those platforms.
