All Amazon apps are buggy and broken. The Amazon shopping app is awful, a bunch of put together web pages hanging on for dear life.

Amazon optimise for sales and metrics over anything else.



> optimise for sales and metrics

I take you have some insider knowledge... if the app is hanging for dear life, how is that helping optimize the sales pipeline?


It's a mess but the main flows just about function so it makes money.


I learned my lesson to not trust amazon after sagemaker, some of their core services are good and well done.


Curious about the sagemaker experience. What specifically was that broke?

Baseless conjecture.

> Amazon optimise for sales and metrics over anything else.

But healthy sales requires an app that works.
