It's pretty easy to "vaccine shop" (if you care about it) at least in the US with all of the scheduling being done online. Sure, if you go to one of the big vaccination sites, you may not get a choice, but it seems that sites offering J&J have been advertising that and ones that don't indicate seem to be Pfizer & Moderna (or if J&J, give you a choice, at least around Massachusetts).

J&J is also widely used in the US for people who might have issues with scheduling a second shot, for example people who are homeless, or are home-bound.

Fair enough. It was still quite hard to get one when I scheduled and I was going to take whatever I could get even if I favored the mRNA ones. That said, if I didn't really care about getting a vaccine but was going to get one anyway, I'd probably just choose whatever I could get most easily.
