If you make more than $2 per month in profit from RB sales they’re now gonna start taking between 20-50% of that away from you as an “account fee,” unless you’re extra special and they give you a fancy Premium Account. let me say that again: if you are a small-time seller on Redbubble, they are going to start taking up to 50% of your earnings from it away. The lower your earnings are, the HIGHER the percentage they take.
Y'all, I don’t make a lot of money from Redbubble, I don’t have many designs up and I don’t publicize my store much. But this is just fucking wrong. Redbubble already makes a profit on every item they sell, while artists make slim, single-digit percent margins.
I can’t say this hard enough:
Fuck Redbubble for this.
Don’t sell your stuff there anymore. Don’t buy stuff anymore either. You are not supporting small artists when you buy Redbubble, you are supporting a big fuckoff company that exploits them.
Donate directly to an artist’s kofi instead if you want to support them. Go to a local print shop if you want custom tees. Stop using Redbubble.
please spread this if you care about your artist friends. this should outrage you 10x anything OpenAI is doing.
This blog is mostly so I can vent my feelings and share my interests. Other than that, I am nothing special.
If you don't like Left Wing political thought and philosophy, all things related to horror, the supernatural, the grotesque, guns or the strange, then get the fuck out. I just warned you.
