It's hard to believe now, but at the time, nobody was taking cloud ecommerce software seriously.

So we started to focus on the meta narrative of the blog was what happens when ecommerce software gets out of the way?

What are the things that you can focus on now that you don't have to worry about time or budget?

Or, you know, technical restraints.

So that was kind of the narrative.

You know, Shopify was great.

It's a great company.

It was growing really fast at the time.

And it was fun until it wasn't for me.

I mean, it's still a great company.

Wow, this is tough.
