There's Amazon Pantry, which has you adding items to a box, which is only sent when full. Thus the mark-up remains quite low.

The last true version of Opera was 12.18, which is slowly bit-rotting to death, e.g. a number of modern https ciphers simply don't work. Opera ASA then jumped to v15, which was a chrome fork with some branding, half-heartedly added a h

The thing you're missing is that in this case UI is not something you can usefully make different without harming yourself in the process, due to it being a huge contributor to function beyond form, and "ripping it off" doesn
