    Not to diss the question, but I’ve seen a bunch of these ‘best purchase’ questions here recently and I wonder if someone is trying to subtly promote a consumerist culture.

      …we already are in one?

      Yes, the “best purchase” questions are a bit frequent. However, where else can you go these days? Facebook? Amazon Reviews? AI article #28462? Paid YT influencers?

      Forms like Lemmy are one the last places you can ask and get reasonable honest human answers for purchase advice. Reviews and troubleshooting are last 2 reasons I go to reddit, and even then reviews over there can be iffy on mainstream stuff.

      Advertisers on Reddit Lemmy, what purchase fits generic criteria?

      Edit: I’m not saying OP is doing that but I tend to believe advertisers were doing this on the old site

      Had exactly the same thought. Although I doubt anyone’s trying to promote anything. Consumer culture has just colonized many of our minds, even here.
