Sure, I know a lot of projects have been on GH since before MS bought it, but they’ve owned it for quite a while now, so we really should be seeing better migration out by now, no?
Codeberg is nonprofit which seems more in the spirit of the Linux ecosystem overall. GH is for-profit…
It’s generally not the search, it’s the payment and shipping
Your local or regional provider can and will send you books in the same time - perhaps not in 24h, but this may be rarely the case that somebody is in a such dearly need of a book.
I am buying books from my local provider, though more expensive, but I want people to have jobs - considering how many bookstores closed due to Amazon - and the possibility to go there, have a book in my hand and read it a bit.
It’s not just books. Amazon offers many more goods, and locks people in with Prime.
I don’t like it, but just claiming it as a sign of virtue won’t change that.
It’s been a while since I’ve seen Amazon talked about as a book store.
Doubt it, most other online stores with the same coverage do offer similar conditions.
The difference is the wide range of products available on Amazon. I can buy 5 products from widely different areas and only pay shipping once (or maybe twice depending on availability).
If I were to order these 5 products on 5 different stores I’d pay 5 times shipping.
And most Amazon customers have prime, meaning they’ve prepaid shipping already.
