Your first product won't be perfect.
Your second won’t be either.
Keep shipping.

Hi all, need backup on this.
Adding @fnthawar @liam_at_shopify for visibilty.
We have been hitting brick wall after brick wall on BFS over @venntov and need help.
Thx in advance @ShopifyDevs
Working toward BFS status but hitting a wall with LCP.
App Bridge + web-vitals show we're under 2.5s - Partner Dashboard says otherwise. Why the disconnect between Shopify's own tools? We're not the only ones seeing this. @Shopify @ShopifyDevs @harleyf @farhanthawar @tobi - can someone help us get aligned?

I decided to spend spring break in Oceanside since my kids are on a girls trip with their momma (as is their spring break tradition). Good food/drink, good company (@Rob_Shipway, not pictured because he was taking the pictures) and the world’s best boss @rhiankatie.
Following up on my electrolyte + bubble water hunt. Cadence has officially hit the top of the list. 😍
It took a few tries to wrap my head around it, but this has now topped my sparkling water list. Really hoping @drinkLMNT keeps this going.

Design isn’t going anywhere.
Ignore the AI thread bois screaming RIP designers or RIP Figma every time a new tool or feature drops.
We closed $80k worth of projects just last week, and we’ve never been this busy.
Serious businesses know good design is what sets them apart, because mediocrity is everywhere.
AI is great for quick prototyping and ideation, but it’s not a 0 to 1 solution to complex problems.
If anything, it makes real design skills even more valuable.
This must have been a tough decision; however, looking at this specific instance with context, it was a no-brainer. Thank you @Shopify + @harleyf
Update in case yall didn’t see my newest tweet:
The team @Shopify removed not only the product in question but the entire store.
I’m grateful to the leadership team that made this happen, and to our @ShopifyDevs community that spoke up across multiple platforms.

I’ve bet on @Shopify over and over in my career.
I’m a Jewish woman whose grandfather escaped the Holocaust with dozens of direct family members murdered by the Nazis.
@harleyf - old friend. I know you aren’t okay with this.
Please please please fix this.
What does @Shopify's Acceptable Use Policy say about Yeezy's single product store? Yes, this is real.

2008 - I started selling a hair product I created, on @shopify
2015 - I wrote a book and sold it on Shopify
2024 - I’m preparing to launch my latest product on Shopify. This time custom made electronics and 3d prints!
Once a Shopify merchant always a Shopify merchant!

Are we the only ones gearing up for the holiday season in July?

I’ve been busy getting healthy enough for surgery.
As of today officially OOO until at least September and at most (hopefully) December.
Be excellent to each other 💜.
I won’t be attending @Shopify Editions.dev
You may be surprised by this.
I was surprised my this.
I have gone to every Shopify developer conference (Unite,Pursuit,etc.) but this one I have to sit out.
Here’s why:
I have had some significant health challenges over the past two years.
I will be having major and invasive surgery in July and will be entering an immunity bubble prior.
So what does this mean?
I’m gone for a while.
Out of office.
I will not be available for anything work related until at least the beginning of September, at most (hopefully) December.
