Doing competitor analysis, so I’m looking at a bunch of shitty websites to see what people are charging…

Apparently one way to convey that you are a very serious corporation with very sophisticated products is to have complicated pricing structures. I feel like I’m comparing SoftBank data plans 😩

Bro, we don’t need like 8 levels of editing packages and 3 tiers of speed in a complicated pricing matrix. 😤

@FlockOfCats Me right now, giving up on tech jobs (sort of. I guess part of what I'm doing spins off into a SaaS startup if I'm lucky but I'll worry about that later) and going into making little doodads for TTRPG gamers. I got picky eater and tiptoe autism, not good at math autism and it's really showing here :')

Doubly complicated when you're relying on eBay for the time being until you get your own shop's code written, and so have to navigate their weird fee structure where every category has a different percentage... and then triply complicated when I'm having to do currency conversions because I'm buying materials in USD, EUR, and CNY and having to factor in customs on top of that.

@mircoxi oof they do like to make it challenging!

I’m much of a business person, but I’d think it would be better to make it easy for people to give you money 🤷‍♀️
