April Plans
As you can tell from our shipping requests above, international expansion is only heating up. For April we are focusing on improving some key parts to better support the community and new sellers that come on board:
- Upgrade Forums
- The forums are getting a massive facelift with more community features
- Flag Products & Community Moderation
- We’ll be giving flagging rights first to sellers, and expand this gradually to see how it used.
- Product Create becoming much simpler
- We agree – this process needs some love
There will be other things we get to, but right now those are the major projects on our list. If you have any ideas, please feel free to let us know!
If you’d like some Tindie stickers, we just got a massive shipment in! Just email us your address to support@tindie.com and we’ll send them out ASAP!
We can’t say thank you enough, but thank you all for your support and help. This is only the beginning and we are fully dedicated to making Tindie the easiest way to find and buy indie hardware.
