Thoughts on Kindle and Audible? (Pondering with the recent anti union ridiculousness)

I long ago stopped using Amazon if I could find a product any other place due to their treatment of workers and the effects on small businesses. However with the recent anti union ridiculousness Amazon continues to engage in to such extreme extent, I’m realizing that my use of kindle and audible is problematic. It may not effect warehouse and delivery workers but it’s supporting the company that is mandating anti union meetings and repeatedly suppressing union votes. Anyone have thoughts on good alternatives you’ve found? (Yes, mainly my local library but they don’t have everything I’m looking for.) What else are you doing to support better options than Amazon? https://www.cnn.com/2022/04/08/tech/amazon-union-elections-objections/index.html
