Reminder to . . . whoever. Amazon represents a large chunk of the income of a lot of independent authors. Collateral damage is real.

But there are other sources for books.

Some ebooks are only available on Amazon, because they pay better for exclusives.

I don't buy much from Amazon. I will always try to buy things locally but, if that fails, I buy online but usually from UK businesses that I've used for decades. (I get annoyed when people forget that mail order was a thing long before the internet existed.) But ebooks are the one thing I do regularly buy from Amazon a) because it's convenient and b) because it's the way many indie authors distribute their books.
