New top story on Hacker News: Tell HN: Makers beware, Etsy will ruin your small business

Tell HN: Makers beware, Etsy will ruin your small business 4 by martin_a | 0 comments on Hacker News. Storytime! A friend of mine asked me to create a rather niche 3D printed part for him. That worked very well for him, so I thought about providing this part to others, too. As I'm good with technical things, but not so good with marketing, I turned to Etsy to sell these parts. They handle SEO, payments etc. pp. for you, so you can focus on creating. Now, for everyone who doesn't know it, Etsy is also FULL of people who just print articulated dragons and other "entertainment stuff", where copyright/proper CC-licensing is, I would say, seems to be handled rather lax. Anyway, I created all my models myself, so I'm safe on that. I set my store up, put up my parts and waited. Etsys SEO magic (and paid advertisements) did its work and after about two weeks, orders started coming in. And it was just not a single order, but one every two days or so, with a basket value...

Ask HN: I Want to have a small Linux laptop. What are my options? 19 by in9 | 34 comments on Hacker News. Buy laptops to run Linux is a bit of fortune wheel. Usually older models have better support due to more developement time. Yesterday I saw an M2 MacBook air and the build seemed really nice. Great for travel. However those are expensive, and I love Linux. What are some options with a similar feel? Good for travel, seems sturdy, and a nice screen? Samsung has a few options, but idk how's the Linux support on their models.

I'm a SaaS founder myself and I've been thinking a lot about the unique challenges that we face in this industry. - Product Development: How do you prioritize features for your product?

Ask HN: Suing Facebook in small claims? 59 by brojoe55 | 35 comments on Hacker News. Hello dear HN. I am looking for advise, I have a Facebook account that has been suspended for unknown reasons, other than I somehow 'broke' the community standards. It is unclear to me which ones however. When I try to re-log in I am stopped by an endless AI bot, and cannot get a hold of a real person. I am still paying monthly for Facebook Ads for my small business. However, I cannot log in to cancel these Ads. I tried contacting my credit card company, but FB uses a different vendor account for each bill posted, making it difficult for the credit card company to stop these transactions. I attempted emailing FB several time to legal@facebook.com. And I wrote a letter twice, and sent in the mail via postage, with tracking, which was delivered, to cancel my Ad services and provide a refund. No response however. Should I proceed to small claims court to recover about $300 of lost Ad revenue, f...
