Time for open source Amazon app alternatives to be made. Made a post on OpenSource with suggestions on how to do it and how it can help open source communities: KDE, GNU/Linux, etc can each make their own and use their profits for their own and other open source projects. A passive income if you will from making, and managing the app that displays products from various partnered stores and websites

    For some context, the issue was affecting AWS or Amazon Web Services, which is hosting for those other services (or parts of them), not an amazon app issue cascading to other services.

    And I don't think an open source amazon app would work. Amazon is a lot more than just a webstore. They've got a massive logistics network plus warehouses and packing plants. I feel like an open source version of amazon's store would end up avoiding the corporate shit but would have all the negatives of amazon store without many of the positives.
