Amazon said it made the decision based on FedEx's poor delivery performance.

And I kind of like the fact that Amazon will take a picture of the package outside the door so that you actually can see that it made it to your door.

Aren't they all (except for high end mansions in certain locales) a חצר שאינה משתמרת. IME FedEx ground delivery crew simply don't know/understand what proper delivery means. When I once spotted one dropping something on my porch and confronted him for not even attempting to make proper delivery he started arguing with me. It's a waste of time dealing with them.

Do UPS and USPS do anything different by you?
That's what everyone's been doing by me for a few years already

To a certain extent. At the very least they ring the doorbell. UPS will often wait for someone to come to the door. FedEx just drops it off on the porch and runs to the next stop. Don't forget, with UPS and USPS I know the delivery people, they are regulars. The FedEx guys (or the Amazon guys) are just contract workers that are here today gone tomorrow.

FedEx doesn't work for the UPS method so why should they wait around?

Fascinating, but we knew this. This was all laid out in the indictment of the Airmont bank robber. We always knew that for a few bucks, you can have the same data on the market.
