Are there any viable alternative sites you’re aware of?
https://artisans.coop/ is run by the actual people making the things being sold. It was started by a group of Etsy sellers who were tired of Etsy’s bullshit.
Nice tip! This has no right being as cute as it is: https://artisans.coop/products/curious-cat-cozy

They need to work on their search feature. Did a search for “dad hat” and “five panel hat” with no results.
It’s entirely possible they don’t have either of those things. It’s a pretty new website, I only learned about it awhile back thanks to Lemmy.
Edit: yup, they need to work on their search. “Five panel hat” has no results while “5 panel hat” does. No dad hats, though.
