RT @yongfook: The older I get (I'm 45) the more I realise that the greatest threat to my existence is not AI, or some well-funded competito….

This week feels just like the last week of the year. I’m not sure what I’m supposed to be doing, getting some rest, pushing some pixels, hitting the beach, wondering which stores are open, and doing huge amounts of reading.

Well merchant fren, if Athens doesn’t do all the things you love, we’ll do them for you. You’re cool. 💚⭐️

If you don't eat feta with watermelon that's ok, we can still be frens.

You don't want to break your sunglasses, especially if the lenses are prescription, in mid-August while in Greece (and I know Italy is almost completely offline around August 15 too). Let's hope I can at least find a shop to fix my current ones. 😅🥲.

Saying goodbye to my dev partner this week. 13 years ago he could barely write jQuery, now he can do anything with JavaScript. So proud of him. Like Statler and Waldorf, it’ll be just me and my cofounder for a while now 😅

Taking some notes and can’t help but notice how toxic the competition has become in digital products. Most of the brilliant young indie devs I follow here would have thrived in the early 00s. Now they’re up against spineless mfers who’d do anything for a quick buck and can’t see.

The greatest thing about summers near a beach in Greece is that you can have a totally different relationship with shoes. Basically you don't need shoes. Only for driving, can't drive without shoes 😄.

Unpopular opinion, but I truly think Shopify should develop and add paid themes to the theme marketplace.

+3kg but hey, I’ll take care of that when I get back to normal mode in September.

One year smoke-free today. After 27 years with this nasty habit, I’m done. I thought it would be much harder, but I’m finally sleeping well after a very long time, and I’ve rediscovered things I’d completely forgotten, like taste 😅.

First time in Methoni and I think I can get used to it. Maybe set up a temp hq or smth, will see 😄

This is brilliant. btw if you want to see how #2 and #3 applies to any creative process, watch "The Beatles: Get Back" documentary.

Stone balancing and great Shopify theme reviews are good for the soul in August 😎

In the web publishing world, including e-commerce, what is particularly funny is the fact that companies from the Americas treat Europe like it’s 2025. Only Wix gets it at this point (that we are still in -2019).

Preparing a live demo of my next business for the ~10 people I appreciate the most in my professional network in September. A beach and a super cold coffee really helps with things like this 😁.

Frens, @trulyfinepixels is back on the market. Enjoying strong positions in the new marketplace. Perfect for a single dev (10-20 hrs/week, ~4 tickets/day). Ready to pursue things outside marketplaces. DMs open.

The Shopify theme marketplace deserves better, no matter what plans the mothership has. But let's have this discussion in a year from now. Still 100% convinced that Shopify will become something like http for the internet of the future. Enough social media for the rest of the.

Thoughts and prayers and ice packs to my Northern European frens who are sticking to a no-AC lifestyle 😅.
