Some sometimes i usually find myself going into amazon and searching through online to buy something but often it ends up being an doom scrolling , it feels like an mall where we can find everything at one place without moving out the home , but i felt that while doing the doom scrolls amazon is quietly learning about me .

It knowns the books i am curious about , the brand i am interested in ,every thing was being studied , and i felt that it builds me as an shopper , the home page felt more relatable which makes me to go through it . IT excites me in some ways but also it is kinda of disturbing

    do the recommendations usually find things you actually wanted, or do they just keep pulling you deeper?

    honest question: if you stopped clicking on recommendations, would amazon even notice or just keep going?

    yeah the 'builds me as a shopper' thing is real. amazon's definitely shaping what you want to buy, not just showing you options

    idk i get it tho. like the personalization is nice, but knowing they know you THAT precisely is weird. both true at once
