last night I started working on a refresh of my site with the goal being to make more frequent updates. to make that easier, my plan is to heavily reduce the amount of css used throughout and simplify the entire structure of the site. outside of neocities I'm always making things and have a pretty busy life so I think this will be a much better system for me ꒰ ꒡⌓꒡꒱

Thanks. I wish I could say I had as much time to do page updates as I did when I started this. The time will come again, I'm sure. I'm glad you like the design. I sometimes feel like its rare for anything visually simple to be appreciated on neocities so it's nice to hear.

No problem! It's so cool to find someone else who is also interested in ancient Germanic culture, your library page (the Edda especially) has been very useful!

I’m thinking I might start selling off some reenactment/art surplus that I make myself, such as wooden combs.. maybe sewn stuff, woodblock prints or even a futteral or two.. if I ever do that would you prefer to be able to buy this through a system like ko-fi or similar? or with just e-mail orders.. ill admit id prefer an email order, but I recognize a ko-fi store would "be"/seem more legitimate

I’d prefer just doing email orders because then I could customise the product pages myself here on my website (ᵔ́∀ᵔ̀;;) and tie that into the point and click experience

direct e-mail orders are fun, though I think they could be seen as "sketchy", as you depend on the seller to answer and give you updates. most other stores would have an UI that shows you mostly in real time some data about your order (even if you don't get a tracking number). I'd say go for both? if you can handle that then you'd get the best of both worlds with the caveat of dealing with two systems

Ooh yes, the email orders seem very fun! I don't know about the inherent trustworthiness of ko-fi (until now I didn't even know you can have a store there in addition to "patreon"-subscriptions), but given how bad actors have ruined the reputation of Etsy stores for me, I wouldn't find email orders much less trustworthy if the rest of the website seems genuine enough. I would suggest to... (character limit)

...focus on making the email orders and the store on your website the best it can be and, if it doesn't eat up too much effort, run a relatively basic "regular" online store via something like ko-fi. I honestly wouldn't be able to estimate how much more or less traffic you'd get from people that don't already follow your monastery-website and who, therefore, already have quite a lot of sympathy and trust towards you.

@crota-gurdy thank you!! since I would only really be selling surplus more or less "for fun", not because I need to make money, I am not that concerned about traffic, so I hope I can make email orders work in some way or the other :)) just from a personal experience, internet selling through a third-party platform like Kofi just seems to have inherently more trustworthiness which I completely understand

im thinking maintaining both might actually be the way

@blamensir Mhmm, I think starting with both options is definitely not wrong. You can then see what resonates the most with people and if one vastly outweighs the other, you can still decide if you want to stick with only one

Offtopic, but while I have you here: Is there some notification or other way to see when someone commented on a post of another or do I just have to scroll down the Activity page and check manually?

for replies I always check manually, afaik there’s no alert for them :) if someone comments directly on my page I get an email notification!
