There Is Too Much Stuff
There are alternatives to Amazon!<p>For general household stuff, my go to store is manufactum.com<p>They only offer very few things, but the things they have are very high quality. If you buy something from Manufactum, you know it'll last for the rest of your life.<p>The stuff there is of course outrageously expensive compared to the plastic crap from Amazon, but for me that means I really think about the purchase. Do we really need two of those metal baskets for the shower that hold your shampoo bottles? Not if it costs 100€.<p>For tools, there's dictum.com, which follows a similar philosophy. They don't offer a million choices; they make a very deliberate choice which products they sell, so you don't have to make the choice. You can rely that something you order from them is a good choice.
