- giarc 2y agoIt's honestly not the junk mail, its all the crap from Amazon/Temu/Aliexpress etc etc.
- standardUser 2y agoIf I order something from Amazon, I use it. If I get junk mail I throw it directly in the trash. They are not the same.
- giarc 2y agoMy point is that junk mail is typically printed locally, on paper. Much of Amazon/Temu deliveries are plastic junk, made in China and shipped overseas. Watch various Reels/Tiktoks/etc and you'll see how many influencers buy crappy gadgets that aren't really needed. We are creating so much junk.
- jbm 2y agoI literally have never seen spare parts for any electronics in a Canadian store. Aliexpress has rescued more than a handful of my devices from the dumpster. Far more helpful than the junk mail garbage that Canada Post helpfully dumps into my home (I'm in one of the few areas where they still deliver to the house, a complete joke of a system compared to USPS)
