I’m not sure if this is just me, but it drives me nuts when I see someone answer a question (for example in the questions section on an amazon product page) to just say that they don’t know or they give an unrelated answer.

For example:

Q: Do these headphones support bluetooth and wired connections?

A: I’m not sure, but my grandson loves these!

The same goes for posts which ask a question on other sites or reviews complaining about a product, despite it doing exactly as advertised. Idk, maybe I should have posted this on unpopular opinion.

    Yep. It’s mind boggling that they still even do this.

    The other thing I hate about reviews is when they use the same review page for different SKUs of the same product. So for example you’ll be reading a review of what you think is a 2 litre plastic container because that’s what you clicked on. The review will say something like ‘it’s too big for the fridge’. Meanwhile the review was actually for the 5 litre version of the same product. So then you have to scroll through a million reviews to find the relevant ones, with no way to filter them.

      At least with that example, the products are related. Amazon lets sellers replace listings with completely different items - new name, picture, and description. So you’ll find a scam 64GB USB drive that’s pretending to be 1TB with hundreds of positive reviews, but when you read those reviews, you realize they’re for the plastic fidget toy that shared the item number previously.
