Universe is my favorite, with SG1 close behind. I feel like Universe tried too hard to be Battlestar Galactica at first and the network wasn’t impressed when it didn’t hit it off like BSG. I would have loved another season.

“don’t have to throw the whole thing out” is what convinced me to get one. I’m not going to make a big difference on my own, but minimizing what I recycle, throw out, or chuck in the basement is still worthwhile.
I have the exact same issue. I thought buying directly from the manufacturer’s site would fix it, but I still get Amazon boxes from some of them. I don’t buy from them again, but it still sucks. I have ended up buying even less, and I wasn’t buying much before.
I try to buy things used, but sometimes that’s just not possible. If it has to be new I try different sites until I find one that doesn’t go through them. You can even call customer service for some smaller sites and find out ahead of time.
I don’t agree with the “don’t bother” hopelessness in this thread. Trying to do the least bad thing is still worthwhile, even if you can’t do something perfectly ethical. I’m proud of you for doing your best.
Contraction. Conjunctions are “and”, “but”, etc.
I’m considering switching too. When my instance updated to .19 or whatever Jerboa would crash if I tried to log in. It sorted itself out after a few days, but it was still a bummer that I couldn’t upvote or save anything for three days.
It also randomly crashes on some posts. I’ve never been able to see a pattern because I am just instantly back at my phone’s home screen. Once every two or three days there is a post that throws it off.
It also doesn’t seem to handle network issues well. If my Internet goes out or my wifi is acting up my screen gets flooded with json errors.
Nothing major, but enough to make me interested in alternatives.
My wife ordered JustEgg (a mung bean egg alternative) because she’s allergic to eggs and they substituted a carton of eggs. Fortunately I was able to eat them.
I refuse to buy anything from Amazon, and I will even pay extra to get it directly from the manufacturer’s site. So it’s really disheartening when I end up getting an Amazon package in the mail anyway. I think a lot of places save on space and headcount by using Amazon for fulfillment.
I even have the same issue with eBay. Some sellers are just drop-shippers for Amazon.
Mine weren’t either. Unbearably miserable for everyone until they got divorced, then it was just regular miserable. Would not recommend.
