Welcome @tibi_diablo ! By the way, I’d love to hear some of your experiences and stories selling plugins as well here in the forums, I’m sure you have a lot
Oh yes, I have been selling plugins since 2004 when the internet speed was about 120kb/s on marketplaces that do not exist now like FlashComponents… I am old at this point but a senior developer who understands the client and what it needs.
I hope more good events from Envato will follow here where we will be safe and concentrate on work not stress about if the marketplace closes or who knows what else…
As you probably know I will upload all my plugins this fall on WPBay, I believe it is the perfect market made by developers for developers, not some crazy CEO and all he cares about are numbers at any cost.
Seeing what happened with Evanto is literally disgusting, I tried to speak about it and got my account suspended I guess this would make a good story
Wow @tibi_diablo , that would be a lot of fun to read about what it was like selling plugins on a 120kb/s connection
Also curious to hear your thoughts on how this entire space has evolved, were you on Envato since its very launch? If you have time, it would be nice if you opened a thread where you told us some of your stories and things you’ve seen.
For me, this project is a lot about fun and it’s been a dream of mine for a while - Szabi has helped make it a reality. I also miss the old-style forums and real discussions. On platforms like Envato or Reddit, there’s 0 soul left and I hate giving them any of my time or content.
You guys did a great job, this year we all need to quit exclusivity on Envato and upload here making it our primary market place… it will not be easy but this is a win 100%.
Personally, I want to escape the Envato grip, it is stressing me too much at this point, also the sales are really bad… is geting worse and worse…
