Comment on Please consider supporting Lemmy development

That makes sense. You could always set up a simple print to order site and slap the Lemmy mouse on a bunch of stuff. I’d definitely buy something.

Do you know a good site for that?

It could be fun to have a community design competition and have those designs available as well.

A lot of people use shopify and then have the orders fulfilled by one if the many print on demand services. So once the store is set up then it’s basically on auto pilot as far as I can tell.
I’ve never done it before, but they make it pretty easy to set up a store and collect payments.
Shopify is a Canadian company so that isn’t an issue in the current political climate, but I’m unaware of any other issues people might have with the company.
