If HomeDepot doesn't want my patronage [...]
I've heard from a former employee that Home Depot underpays their workers [...] In my opinion, screw them.
Here's a feature piece
about that.
Also, they drive smaller
local businesses that, unlike Home Depot were genuinely part of their local communities, out of existence.
Concerning the letter, here is my view:
People who try to use the site and find it doesn't work for them
should contact Home Depot and tell them about it, regardless whether Home Depot is likely to be responsive. I believe those are the people who should do the communicating.
Feedback from shoppers
in the course of trying unsuccessfully to shop might have influence (eventually)
if there is a large enough number of such communications (such that Home Depot sees the site to be non-functioning in a way that costs them real money). But a letter written in the abstract, as this one seems to be, is to my mind less useful.
Consider reframing your letter in terms of your
own trouble trying to use the site, mentioning that other PM users have the same problem to establish that it's not unique to you (rather than to frame it as a collective communication).
Specifically concerning this: "On behalf of the users of the Pale Moon web browser,"
@Tharthan, you do not represent "the users of the Pale Moon web browser".
People may have varying individual opinions on whether they want your letter to represent themselves, but you don't represent or speak "on behalf of" the collective usership, and you can't hold yourself out to Home Depot as having such a status. At least not
legitimately. (I get that you wanted to give yourself the appearance of having
standing, but still...)
Or... tl/dr. As said above, just shop elsewhere.
