    I am disabled and have limited income I don’t have control over increasing or decreasing. I use temu to save a lot of money on essential things that should be cheap but are still overpriced in America. Sponges. Rags. Soaps. Pens. Tools. Home improvement hardware. Plant grow supplies. Gifts for me nieces. The tagline, is just a tagline. Billionaires are not like me and scouring for cheap magic sponges.

    Edit: also, temu did not invent drop shipping. Shopping on amazon is literally the same thing.

      Good to know people that are disabled don’t mind using shitty maleware apps, I guess?

      What’s your point combining using the malware app with you being disabled? Is that supposed to make the app better somehow?

      You’re not special because you’re disabled. Things you use aren’t magical amazing. You’re still the same as everyone else.

        That’s… not what they were saying? They were responding to a comment saying it encourages consumerism by saying that they use it for better prices on things they need regardless
