    Everything about temu screams surveillance and scam to me. I don’t understand how anyone could install that and use it regularly.

      When the alternative was to pay more for the exact same things on Amazon, it’s logical to pay less. Every app tracks you so idk…

          AliExpress also sells high quality niche items if you know how to find them. I agree the site is drowning in crap, but at least coming from Canada, it often has things amazon.ca simply doesn’t sell… or anywhere else in the world at a price that isn’t prohibitive.

          Just like most places on the Internet, using the site is a skill that needs to be developed.
