That's interesting but isn't electronic commerce a subset of technology? Because it's technology and the internet and technology entrepreneurs that have enabled e-commerce to become a thing. Most, if not all of the headlines on your site looks like they would be welcome articles posted here that would engage discussion.

Of course visiting the site second time it's now prompting me for money. That's a very e-commerce thing that makes people click away. Why would I subscribe to a site like hacker News, Even if I was mostly interested in e-commerce-based things? So I suspect you are doing the very anti-hacker news thing and very e-commerce centered thing of loading me up with tracking cookies. Good job!

Thanks Elmerfud, for your thoughtful comment and for taking the time to visit the site! You're absolutely right that e-commerce is a subset of technology, and many of the topics could fit within a broader tech discussion. However, our goal with this platform is to create a focused space specifically for e-commerce entrepreneurs—where discussions and insights are tailored directly to their needs without getting lost in the noise of general tech content.

As for the subscription model, I appreciate your perspective. The intention is to sustain the platform while delivering curated, high-value insights. That said, we're continuously exploring ways to provide more free access while ensuring the quality of content. Your feedback is invaluable in shaping the direction of the platform!

Glad to hear you're interested in e-commerce topics, and I hope the site continues to provide you with useful insights. If there's anything specific you'd like to see or improve, feel free to share!
