co-signing, i just migrated my shop from shopify to big cartel! im a happy camper 😁

For anyone looking for a new shop platform (because Etsy continues to find new ways to be horrible) I've been really happy with Big Cartel. They're not owned by investors, so have more commitment to creators and good customer service. Plus AI shield. My referral link:
bigcartel.cello.so/eye9LU7sQlL

Screenshot from Big Cartel shop settings page. Text reads:

Al shield.

I was considering Etsy since Shopify had become too stressful with how things currently are on my end but man…

Etsy is betraying artists again. Please buy things from my Etsy store before December when they'll start doing this! After that I don't know if I'll stay with them. It's either move to a new marketplace site or Glaze every single image I post there. And I can't Glaze customer pics! Guess I'll die

Als shopify een fietsaccessoire zou zijn dan zou het volgens mij denk ik eigenlijk de fiets zelf zijn

Every Shopify ad that interrupts my podcasts makes me incrementally less likely to ever use Shopify.

Just saw a Shopify ad featuring MrBeast where the centrepiece pitch was using their AI agent to generate misleading images of your products.

I scanned 669 established UK Shopify stores in October. One collection page in seven had nothing in it to buy, and nearly a third of stores had a test or draft page still live. Worth checking yours before Black Friday.

God mid roll ads are fucking horrible. I know why folks have to do it, but I'm listening to a show that just jumped from a fantastic cliffhanger into an advert for shopify and the gear change is so fucking crunchy.
