People regret buying Amazon smart displays after being bombarded with ads
After buying their POS Fire Tablet (and almost immediately returning it,) I'll never buy an Amazon- branded device again. It's all proprietary bloatware.

Yep, only had to buy one Fire Tablet to know I'd never buy another Amazon product ever again.

Received this email through David’s Bridal…
That said, if you have a strong no it's not a bad experience. I got an Amazon fire tablet by sitting through a presentation and saying no each time lol

We've kept our toddler tablet free and she's almost 4. We are planning a trip on the other side of the world with a 24 hr travel. Worried about keeping her busy. Debating whether we should get a Kindle fire kids tablet or something else. Any recommendations?
The Amazon kids fire tablets suck. They’re so slow and choppy. But that’s what we have. We aren’t a tablet family, but the 3yo and almost 6yo get them for trips. It works well enough for that, they’re just so frustrating for me to prep downloading shows and such ahead of a trip because they’re so sl

Mmmm free Wiffy
For a while when I was a kid, I had this Amazon Fire tablet but no wifi. I had to get into this password free wifi network from my neighbor's house, and I was lucky to get 2 bars. I'm so glad for my own internet now.

Found a bunch of discarded tablet cases
Those look like the old case for the Amazon kids fire tablet. My kids had the blue version. My youngest slipped going down the stairs once and flung her tablet into a wall. Not even a scratch on the thing.

Kids these days care more about ipads and tiktok
Amazon kiddie tablets are mad cheap. I'd say most "iPad kids" are rocking amazon fire tablets and not apple products

LeapFrog founder Mike Wood dies by physician-assisted suicide following Alzheimer’s diagnosis
Strange note on that: I tried a kids' Fire tablet before we got the LeapPad, and it kept having problems and not working right because it kept trying to get me to tie it to a paid Amazon account, even after I did it kept resetting.

YouTube kids on kids Amazon tablet
I would sack off YouTube and YouTube kids, the kids app is still hugely unregulated and full of rubbish. If she’s watching unsupervised, I’d stick to watching on the BBC iPlayer app, as then there won’t be any suggested episodes that aren’t official Peppa. Many tablets have parental controls that al

Ohh shit, Amazon going to cut 30K corporate workers. Glad I didn't join their Finance team to work 5x a week in their office
I worked in AMZ corporate for 3 years and I firmly believe that Amazon literally does nothing well. They live off of their massive logistics network and the amount of money they can throw at shit to make it happen, and that’s about all they have. AWS has been entirely first mover advantage thus far,
