I used to get around 25% of my Amazon packages from Fedex, now most come from Amazon's own delivery service, the rest either come from the USPS or UPS (or sometimes both - UPS delivers to the postoffice and the mailman delivers to my house)

I actually like Amazon deliveries. They leave the packages at the door (in this case I'm ok with) and send a picture of said delivery, verifying that they did indeed leave it at and not in the apartment main office (which is conveniently only open while I'm at work)

As a recipient, I like them - as a pedestrian and cyclist I don't, their drivers are horrible drivers, driving too close to cyclists, cutting off pedestrians on sidewalks, etc.I assume it's because they are under a lot of time pressure to make deliveries.

UPS drivers, despite the large trucks, seem to be much safer drivers.
