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.
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
RedditLemmy, what purchasefits 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.
