Amazon: Influencer and Publisher Videos
Amazon full retard.

I'm looking for water soluble plant food and in the review section of some fertilizer they provide a video on how to care for snakes and one on how to remove algae from your fish tank. Roll Eyes

They have long hosted customer review photos and videos on products. Now they have added "Influencer" and Publisher Videos.. Just the sound of that phrase turns my stomach.

So I was looking at a plant fertilizer... some videos were shown, a couple were related, but also just as many completely un-related...

Swing and a miss Amazon.

You would love Jake and Logan Paul. They have made a fortune doing this sort of thing and are now moving into boxing.

So, I have to wonder: is a "fertilizer influencer" full of manure? Razz



God bless America.

If they double as a "fashionista" they wear it. Big Grin

As long as you can select, I actually like the idea.. I can go straight to the customer reviews and the "influencer" nonsense doesn't clutter up that list!

Well it's easily avoided by not buying at Amazon!

Well it's an hour and a half excursion to the nearest big box store and back, twice that for many speciality stores if I need something.

Amazon Prime makes it awful simple if I can wait two days. I don't mind the relevant videos... just keep 'em relevant to the item being viewed, or at least remotely so.

When I hear ‘influencer’ I visualize the cute female that most want to watch regardless of what’s being peddled.

Life is usually easier if your cute, especially for the ladies.
