Let me spend 6 hours looking at slightly different screwdrivers and keycaps and dodgy anime merch and ICs that haven’t been used since 1988. Way better than 84 pages of KWJIBO brand home goods.
Ali express isn’t that different from other websites, there are certain brands I know and trust, or if something is cheap enough, I will take a risk on it being good. I actually just bought some stuff there yesterday.
Amazon is basically Ali Express or Temu. All the trustworthy / quality products are buried unless you explicitly search for them.
Except Aliexpress is still fun.

I went to multiple hardware, plumbing stores, and Amazon but only found my obscure bathtub faucet to hose fitting on aliexpress for less than a dollar
I ended up on Temu for the first time today since I always avoid Amazon. Pretty sure that site gave my phone an STD.
I use it to price check and sometimes figure out a better search term before I get it from a china direct seller.
