Do you hand-make things that you sell? Do you wish Etsy would *disintegrate* for jacking up fees 30% after a record sales year?

Artisans Coop is on its way to becoming a very real Etsy alternative, a place for handmade goods that is owned by its members, that can put all that "record sales" into the pockets of sellers, not white collar thugs. And i do mean artisans, not assholes who steal designs and get them printed at a sweatshop.

How is that possible? Check it out: https://artisans.coop/blog/join-an-authentic-handmade-marketplace-now-enrolling-members/

@inkshark boosting because it's good to see activity in this space. I've no comment on whether this particular enterprise lives up to its stated ideals; I just don't know.

@maphew Thank you!

And also thank you for being someone who can say "I don't know" instead of endorsing something because you wish it was as good as it seemed. ❥
