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.

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.
They are great questions to train the AI on. That’s why were are all here right?
