"it's payday fellas"

Getting back from a little week outside my room, i realized few stuff. I want to try to have a lil shop. full of bits and bobs. Yep that means you will be able to get some of my keyboard pcbs along few other stuff like cards, and yeah handcraft stuff.

It's the least weird project i'm into. On the good side it's a temporary project, so my ADHD will be pleased. I also think that will be super hard to manage every paying/banking stuff myself. I think i need more time with that because i'm not sure how i will manage this thing.

between Stripe & Paypal

I want people to have choice, but also make this little shop like i would make it in real life. A Pay as you want but there's this minimum on each so everything will be nice on my side and i'll not feel the guilt of overpricing stuff. I took full inspiration on Gentle Living Shop which to me is the right way to get independant without losing yourself with big platforms like Etsy and look alikes.

Keep in mind it's not a critique of people doing it. Etsy is more than fine when you don't have the skills of doing it yourself, being able to have a server create a wordpress platform. I also considering it all the time because i am like that. I have to do trials and errors and see for myself when i have doubts.

Everything will be hosted somewhere else my server i think. for sake of security and stability. I was thinking about Hetzner server now i have an account there.

I also considered Liberapay and other patronage platform but i miss knowledge on it and actually talk with people using various patronage platfoms

Y'know.

Maybe i want to do something with this, not gonna lie y'all but i really want to go somewhere with my skills now. I wanna share and also why not make a living along the way. I'll still be invested into workshop and free sharing but also yeah if there's stuff you like in my shop. It'll support it. And also make me realize i'm not a piece of shit with useless skills. (even if you wont buy but interract with me, it matters).

And yeah. I want to keep to do better.
