You gotta be silly and whimsical and full of joy sometimes so baby systems know they have options. Remember: you, too, can be a random blogger of shitposts on the Internet, or an editor of nonhuman romance novels, or someone who carries a turtle down several blocks to release it into a small lake because otherwise it's going to keep trying to walk into the road. Just because you're a system doesn't mean you're locked into one strict way of life – and it definitely doesn't mean you're doomed to be miserable all the time, forever. Despite it all, we stay silly

[istherewifiinhell]

were back to our (ir)regularly scheduled bullshit!

[ID: Splash page with the issue title and creative credits. Megatron is bound up in cables, some plugged into him, effecting repairs. He speaks: Remind me to thank you when i get down from here, Shockwave. Meanwhile, resumption of my command must begin now. Shockwave: You don't seem to understand. These autobots you see lying dead on the ground are there because I put them there. The Decepticons you see barely clinging to life are in that operating mode because of you. Until I intervened, Autobot victory over us was assured.* The evidence says your leadership was faulty, Megatron. Logic says I must assume command of the Decepticons. Editor's Note: *as seen in issue 8 END]

back to the USmarvel, The New Order, issue no. 5! (22-23 UK reckoning) from feb 1985!

Script: Bob Budiansky Art: Alan Kupperberg Letters: Rick Parker Colour: Nel Yomtov Editor: Jim Owsley EiC: James Shooter Digital Re-master by Digikore Studios Limited. Collection Edits by Justin Eisinger and Alonzo Simon. Editorial notes and assistance by Mark. W. Bellomo

now... welcome back digital re-master. just in time for me to rip you a new on... bare with my folks...

so this issue opens with new king bitch in town, shockwave, conducting research into humans via television. so uh.., they put honeymooners in my transformers comic?

[ID: Both images of a Full page B&W illustration, two men stand behind a table, one asking "Whatsa matter Ralphie-boy?" Ralph, staring wide eyed, dead ahead, grips a chair saying "Homina-Homina-Homina!" A woman looks in through a window, with a scowl. 1. The illustration uses blocked inks, and half-tones for the characters, but the background and objects have mid and dark halftones added in an almost painterly fashion. 2. The art now with most of the tones and shading removed, everything left either black, midtone, or stark white. END]

surely. one of these images is higher definition. but which one looks BETTER? now its possible this is actually about which master copies they were working from. perhaps a rights issues? (the uk printing replaces this page with a different image) but i note here ALSO. they removed the artist, Kupperberg's, signature form the bottom left corner. a hateful affair all told.

though, this doesnt just piss me off to see an artist works edited, and made to SUCK! (tho boy does it...) my friends... comrades, fellow bloggers. lend me your eyes. DO they see this the way mine do? cause ill eat my fucking hat if that's not DUOSHADE paper. the infamous medium of many a B&W indie. not familiar? check out my previous blogging on the friendly neighbourhood martial reptiles. but i digress.

if this. this INSULT to my very being wasnt enough. they also recoloured shockwave from a perhaps accidentally stunning shade of magenta to a cool lavender... which i personally just found quite boring. well. most of the time

[ID: 1. UK printing, Shockwave seated on throne like seat, coloured very warm toned purple. He listen to a sports broadcast and says "These humans are even more primitive than I thought." 2. Digital remaster, Shockwave's profile visible, coloured red, as he watches a news reporter. END]

the very first image of this post has another, red shockwave, btw. I suppose, they could be printing or colouring errors, but they could also be lighting/compositional choices by Yomtov (its not uncommon for his foreground characters to be done in monotone, particularly, purple) either way they corrected for it. and to me, this instance just comes of that whatever work flow being used, doesnt even flag the second figure AS shockwave, so a redwave remains...

i stress. i never blame any individual who does this work. its to them, just a job, and why should it not be? my ire is with IDW, and why they enact these "restorations" anyway, and why the fuck people ought to pay new money for old art that has been given so little respect...

anyway reading the print version meant a lot of tabbing between the us and uk printings. which is why i noticed this

[ID: The crediting for the colourist, Nel Yomtov. In the US printing the say "Colors" and in the UK "Colour", the S removed, and a U added. END]

im just amused by the effort taken... surely the kids dont care that much? and yes apparently they do this every time.

JEEZE CREESY WHO CARES. LETS SEE SOME ROBOTS

[ID: Shockwave watching the news, off panel dialogue Reporter: Ms. Beller, you have been called a computer genius even though you're only a few years out of high school. What is your role in this? Beller: It's true I designed the secondary and tertiary oil recovery systems Reveal of Beller, a very young looking woman in a jacket and a hard hat. She continues: --the semi-automated defense system, the refinery's non-polluting digitized micro-scrubbers. But I consider it all just a part of my job. END]

shockwave learns the alarming news that a new female character is being introduced!

[ID: 2 page spread, the bodies of almost every single introduced Autobot are hanging from the ceiling, damaged and "bloodied". Shockwave scrolls under them, saying "Indeed" END]

also. check this shit out

anyway WHATS going on between shockwave and megs?

[ID: Shockwave pointing to the still bound Megatron: You will explain now how you permitted our position to deteriorate so drastically, Megatron. Megatron, mostly off panel: As… Commander… it is your right to demand anything of me. It is my privilege to oblige. END]

OH. its like that huh?

[ID: Shockwave offpanel "--Should logic so dictate." A close on Megatron, he thinks "Talk, Shockwave..." A close on his repairing hand twitching "...talk while you still can!" END]

well maybe not for long...

anyway... turns out the WAS a reason we saw ratchet helping those EMT's

[ID: Ratchet driving into the hospital parking lot. Buster calls out "Ratchet!!" who responds "Greetings, Buster Witwicky how nice to see your carbon-based face again!" Buster asks "Ratchet, where've you been?" END]

I hope your all ready to become extremely endeared by ratchet, or else just put up with it. cause...

[ID: Buster and Ratchet, still in alt mode, continue to speak, while EMTs are searching for the source of this mysterious voice. Buster: If they attacked the Autobots they should all be broken-down junk-heaps by now! Ratchet: Wonderful! I knew your father was a human we could trust EMT 1: I'll look behind the grill, Mel! EMT 2: I'll check under the seat cushion, Gus! Four people react in shock as Ratchet shouts: Do you organic creatures mind? I don't go poking around your mouths to see how you talk, do I? END

my beloved....

[ID: Ratchet on the road, stopped at a red light, as Buster rides inside. Ratchet: Listen, friend traffic signal, we're in a hurry, so if you could please turn green… Buster: It doesn't hear you, Ratchet, it's only a machine. Ratchet: I'm a machine, and I hear you, Buster! Buster: Yes, but you're different, you're-- Inside view as the light turns green. Ratchet: Ahh, he changed! Thank you, friend traffic signal. May the rest of the day find you in proper working order. You see, Buster, you have to learn how to talk to people. Buster: I… I'll try to keep that in mind, Ratchet. END]

this is so charming can we get corey burton and uh. well rest in peace don messick.., so just corey burton twice will do, to record his.

oh and anyone interest in timeline of when tf lore gets introduced (me... thats... mainly just me)

[ID: Shockwave points to Megatron: As always, you underestimate Optimus Prime, Megatron. No, he will not be cut up into wires and microchips. His value is far greater to us if we keep him functional, for it is logical to assume that an Autobot of his stature contains within him--The Creation Matrix! Megatron thinking: By the divine weld! The Creation Matrix is the computer program that allows its possessor to construct new transformer life! Its power is the stuff of legends! Shockwave continues: It is said once every ten millenia a new Autobot leader is chosen and encoded with The Matrix. END]

MATRIX MENTION? everyone have their lore bibles out? someone WRITE THAT DOWN.

[ID: Buster stumbling through the Ark in shock, "N-no… it can't be true! There must be some explanation! There must be! Wait a second… I didn't see Optimus in there…there's still optimus… there has to be--" He walks into a room with Optimus Prime's severed head, plugged into grand machinery. Buster yells "--Optimus!" Prime, weakly: Buster Witwicky… You must help me… you are… the Autobots… last hope…" End card-- Next: Oil Rig Assault! END]

OH MY GOD!

[anyhs-themes]

HIATUS (en)

What about my themes? I'm not taking commissions anymore, but all my themes will continue to be available for now, however I'm no longer updating them, so use them at your own risk!

Where to find me? You can still find me on my personal blog (@anyhsalinas). And if you have a theme/HTML/CSS/JavaScript related question for me, as long as it's a simple question I might have time to help you, so send it to my personal blog (here) ONLY. Don't even try to ask about these things on my other social medias where the focus is not coding, please, otherwise I'll block you (I had people doing this before and I get very annoying by that, respect my spaces, please).

Why I'm quitting?

One of the biggest reasons why I loved Tumblr was the ability to customize our blogs however we wanted and turn it into our own space with our own style. And that's why I started making themes for myself and for other people. But over the last years Tumblr has kinda neglected this feature of the platform:

Clicking on a blog through the dashboard now takes you to a default dashboard-like page (this) and not to the customized version of the blog (this), which turned customizing your blog into something pointless because we take a long time customizing our theme only so that it might never even be seen by anyone;

This change also made it possible for people to send me messages without even seeing the rules for messaging me first;

And let's not forget the fact that now we need to contact Tumblr's staff to ask and wait for their permission in order to use JavaScript in custom pages, which makes things so unnecessarily more difficult for people who want to use our custom pages (they say it's for safety reasons, but it's still possible to use scripts on the main theme, so what's the point?).

Let's talk about writing posts as well:

We can no longer use basic HTML codes on posts which made it impossible for me to post tutorials (since it blocks the codes I'm trying to teach) -- which made me need to create a blog on Blogger to post my tutorials there, and have to simultaneously take care of two blogs on the exact same topics, which is kind of annoying;

Also the new post editor has been very buggy for me. Sometimes when I try to copy a portion of the text I'm writting it just won't copy no matter what. Sometimes it will duplicate paragraphs on its own for no reason...

Tumblr has also made some bad decisions (in my opinion at least) over the years of what kind of content to allow in the platform which caused serious problems to the platform itself (as you might have seen in the news around that time), but even before that also caused a big change in its community and the majority of the blogs I loved (the meme, poetry and fandom blogs of shows and bands I like) moved to Twitter (I still refuse to call it "X", lol) and other social medias. So most of what I loved about this platform is gone forever and the only things still keeping me here are the things I have saved in my blogs, my liked posts and drafts (mostly custom content and mods that I found here for The Sims, lol).

I haven't been using Tumblr regularly in... years, actually. Only sometimes I pass by. And I no longer enjoy developing themes for this platform because now, after all these changes, it has turned into something kinda pointless. Also, I've been busy with other projects that are bringing me more joy at the moment, such as my Youtube channels and crafting. So I'm leaving behind this part of my life... I don't like saying this is an end because I can always change my mind. But unless Tumblr goes back to making our custom theme as the main page of our blogs (instead of that default dashboard-like boring page), I don't think I'll go back to making themes for this platform.

But thank you all for your support in this blog and for using my codes through all of these years! Wish you all the best. 💕

I've been lurking on your blog for some time now for the astrology updates, but today I'm starting to see what you and some of your anons have been saying about these "Wale's Wailers." I consider myself a pretty big fan of Will and Kate but I can see how some fan blogs are beginning to lose the plot.

I know a blogger in particular who is starting to sound like a Squad member by the day. Yesterday it was pretty much along the lines of "good for Meghan for not showing up because Camilla didn't want her to steal the show" and "Harry was right about Camilla, he was right about a lot." lol Keep in mind this is a blog that is supposed to be extremely anti Sussex. It has gotten so bad with them that they are siding with Meghan and Harry.

Today this blog seems to be accusing Charles of basically paying Dailymail editors because they reported on a poll that rated him favorably. But then totally forgets to mention that there is also an article about the poll showing how Australia and Canada want to vote to remove Charles as their head of state.

Yup. I can probably guess which blog it is because I probably have it blocked. They either always were this crazy and were able to hide it for a long time OR they have jumped the shark, decided they're going to be crazy, and will remain so for the rest of time.

It's either that everything written in the press is the fault of evil BP, Clarence House, & Charles or Charles is just incompetent. (Never mind that the UK isn't North Korea, and Fleet Street can totally print bullshit and not lose any money or respect. They seem unaware of what a free press is allowed to write & publish, even though they live in a country with the USA's First Amendment privileges.)

That person doesn't seem to realize that--if Kate walks into the Abbey on Saturday morning in her new £10k gown and wearing the Dehli Durbar tiara--for all their ranting and raving over the past few weeks, that person has proved themselves to be an idiot.

But that person is on course to do just that.

I get that people are worked up because no one knows for sure how Charles' coronation is going to look and sound, but at this point, I just want it over so that people can stop acting as if the apocalypse is happening at 11 o'clock in the morning this Saturday in the UK.

[mariacallous]

A new Russian propaganda show debuted a few days ago on YouTube, which has blocked numerous channels connected to the Russian state, including Russia Today, the “LDNR” People’s Republics, Vladimir Solovyov, and others. Parent company Google started purging this content well before the February 2022 invasion of Ukraine on the grounds that it violates YouTube’s community rules. Now one project is trying to claw back that audience with a program called “Z-Girlfriends,” whose creators say their main goal is to support Russian troops as they fight in Ukraine.

‘Z-Girlfriends’ is modeled on popular lifestyle content, but the first episode demonstrates that its aim is pro-invasion propaganda

The show’s name is clearly borrowed from “Girlfriends,” a Russian-language YouTube show that included more than 40 episodes and wrapped up in 2021. On that earlier program, the hosts discussed “taboo themes related to sex,” attracting millions of views.

The first episode of Z-Girlfriends features three hosts, each with a background in propagandizing Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. There’s Anastasia Kashevarova, a former aide for State Duma Speaker Vyacheslav Volodin, and Ekaterina Agranovich, who worked as a producer on a recently released miniseries called “Mobilization,” which tells the story of a disillusioned man living in Donetsk who leaves for Moscow on the eve of Russia’s full-scale invasion and then returns as a draftee. (The miniseries was filmed entirely in occupied Ukrainian territory.) Agranovich is also known as the “chief media figure of the Donetsk Empire,” and she serves as the editor-in-chief of a pro-invasion Telegram channel with 190,000 subscribers. Joining Kashevarova and Agranovich is Ulyana Strizh, a “volunteer” who promotes the war by organizing fundraisers for Russia’s invasion force.

All three women are active pro-invasion bloggers. In their debut, they also teased the arrival of another, still-unnamed host on the next episode.

The first episode of Z-Girlfriends, titled “Women at War,” was released on May 26 and has roughly 30,000 views at the time of this writing — a relatively small number, considering the large audiences the show’s hosts reach individually on social media. (Kashevarova’s Telegram channel has 260,000 subscribers, and 74,000 accounts subscribe to Agranovich’s personal channel.) According to journalists at Vot Tak, other pro-invasion channels also promoted the new show, though that seems to have done little to generate interest.

It’s unknown who finances the production of Z-Girlfriends. The show itself mentions no production studios in its credits. Agranovich calls it a “show-experiment that we thought up in a café.”

The hosts criticize Ukraine for ‘worshipping evil’ and call on men to go to the front to find new friends

Agranovich credits her late friend, Vladlen Tatarsky (a fellow propagandist and “war correspondent” who was killed in a bombing in St. Petersburg in April 2023), with inspiring a show that tries to put a woman’s face on the invasion: “He had this idea that [Russia] lacks women who are public-opinion leaders. Young, beautiful women for whom soldiers will fight. In terms of relationships, nothing motivates [men] to go to the frontlines.”

The show’s opening graphics indicate that Z-Girlfriends is devoted to topics including the “special military operation,” “mobilization,” “war correspondents,” body armor, drones, the Verkhniy Lars border crossing between Russia and Georgia (where long lines of Russians fleeing south formed in September 2022 after President Putin initiated a draft), and more.

The show’s hosts spent much of the first episode talking about how women who support the war in Ukraine ought to present themselves. At one point, Kasheverova complained that the women who host programs on Russian network television present too “asexually.” She urged Olga Skabeeva (one of state TV’s best-known propagandists) to do more to “express her femininity,” citing Joan of Arc as a role model who aroused men in more ways than one, Kasheverova argued.

Later in the show, Agranovich lamented that Russia has yet to produce its own “Marilyn Monroe in a beautiful, shiny dress singing in front of the troops.” Instead, she said, Russia relies on “an old granny with a flag” and “a boy who waves at soldiers” — allusions to Anna Ivanova outside Kharkiv, who confusedly waved a Soviet flag at Ukrainian troops, and “Little Boy Lyosha,” who famously saluted a military convoy passing through Belgorod.

The women of Z-Girlfriends explained that a woman’s image in Russia is represented by “the Virgin Mary and the Motherland,” but in Ukraine it’s “the image of a witch and death.” According to Agranovich, this is because “on TikTok they do debaptisms. Why? Because, when Vladimir baptized Rus’, he actually enserfed it. And, like, ‘Our pagans were cool, and Christianity sucks.’ That’s why all the women are witches.” Kashevarova then added that Ukrainians reject “spiritual bonds” and “worship evil and some skulls or something.”

The show’s hosts claimed that most Russian men who fight in Ukraine want to return to the frontlines because of the friendships they make there. “You finally understand how you’re needed and what life means,” said Kashevarova. “They’re waiting for you there, and your arrival is the coming of the Sun.” Agranovich, on the other hand, acknowledged that many returning soldiers battle posttraumatic stress, but she herself stressed that “war is a real place where people come alive.”

During their first episode, the women of Z-Girlfriends also took time to condemn Vladlen Tatarsky’s accused killer, Daria Trepova, calling her a “terrorist” and “the world’s saddest person.” The hosts endorsed a rumor spread by the pro-Kremlin Telegram channel Mash that Trepova accepted 20,000 rubles ($250) in cryptocurrency from Ukrainian officials to carry out the assassination, and they advocated sentencing her to a “legal firing squad” (though Russia observes a moratorium on the death penalty). Z-Girlfriends’ hosts also mocked blogger Elena Blinovskaya (recently placed under house arrest on charges of evading 900 million rubles — $11,100 — in taxes), complaining that “not one ruble” of her earnings were shared with the Russian military.

Pivoting to gay soldiers in the U.S. army, Kashevarova said the American military is “packed with all the freaks,” while Agranovich warned of a “big army crisis” in the United States and claimed that “the lowest percent of people” in the West are willing to take up arms for their country.

But the Russian authorities didn’t escape all criticism, either. The Z-Girlfriends hosts are surprisingly upset with Russia’s own Defense Ministry, accusing the military of being too slow to respond to questions from the state media about developments at the front. The ministry’s work isn’t transparent enough, the hosts argued.

Kashevarova and her cohosts went even further, too, faulting the Kremlin for failing to explain why it unleashed a full-scale war in the first place. “The state offers no ideology,” they complained. “Nobody understands what demilitarization and denazification are. Nobody spells it out for us. There are no ideological booklets. I mean, the ones that exist are written in incomprehensible legalese.”

WordPress Block Editor – How Does It Differ From Classic Editors?

What Are Content Blocks In WordPress?

According to the official WordPress help website, content blocks are “the components for counting content in the new WordPress block editor.” To make a post and page design simpler, easier, and more flexible via blocks, this editor replaces the Tiny MCE editor used by earlier WordPress versions.

He suggested printing your website and cutting out each piece of content to help you understand the various blocks. For example, it would allow you to see that your headlines, photos, paragraphs, videos, buttons, and other elements are all separate blocks.

Beyond the content blocks listed above, WordPress also provides a broader range of content blocks, including but not limited to:

Gallery

List

Quote

Audio

Custom HTML

Table

Navigation

Template Part

Site Logo

Query Loop

What Makes The WordPress Block Editor Different From The Classic Editor?

First, the classic TinyMCE content editor:

The traditional editor makes me think of Microsoft Word. There is a space for you to type and a formatting toolbar to design your information (bold, italics, etc.).

The new WordPress Block Editor creates material using a block approach. As a result, this WordPress block editor not only looks more professional and contemporary but also lets you:

Add tables (once more, without needing to learn to code or install plugins);

Text and media items may be moved around and combined by simply dragging and dropping them;

Allows to create content columns easily;

Allows to adjust each block’s background hues and font sizes;

Reuse blocks that you often utilize (to save yourself time).

It’s Just the top of the iceberg.

Thus, both editors (WordPress Block Editor and Classic Editor) are distinct.

Types Of WordPress Blocks Editors (And How To Use Them)

Here are all of the block kinds that Gutenberg (WordPress Block Editor) offers, organized by category:

Standard Blocks The fundamental (or “common”) components that individuals frequently utilize in their blog posts are included in this category of blocks. These blocks will be used more often than not by most bloggers and authors.

Paragraph Block The paragraph block is a blank space to type your text. The usual formatting choices include text alignment, font size, background, text colors, drop caps, and more.

Image Block By selecting it from the WordPress media library, uploading it from your computer, or pasting its URL, you may quickly insert a picture into an Image Block. You may add a description, change the image’s size, add alt text, and use the usual WordPress image settings.

List Block You may make an unordered list of items or one with numbers by using a list block (numbered list). Additionally, you may format the text, include anchor links, and create sub-items for each primary item in the list.

Quote Block You may add your favorite quotations in a lovely, elegant way with the Quote Block. After writing the content and identifying the author, format it as a paragraph block. You can choose to utilize a bigger font size or the standard size.

Heading Block You may start a new part of your post with a heading block. There are six header sizes available. The lesser ones may be found on the sidebar to the right of the editor, while the first three are visible inside the block.

File Block You may include any content using File Blocks for your visitors to download, including photos, archives, documents, PDFs, and more. You may select to link to a media file or an attachment from the sidebar, display a download button, and open the document in a new tab.

Video Block You may add videos by using the Video Block. You can choose to mute or autoplay them. You may supply a poster picture for the thumbnail if you don’t want to show the featured capture it gets by default, which is a great option.

Cover Block You may produce a picture or video with text overlay using a Cover Block. It may be used as a header or as the featured picture for a post. Additionally, you may change the background color and opacity.

Formatting Blocks Pull quotes, tables, and verses are among the formatting-focused blocks that fall under this heading.

Code Block If you wish to provide your readers with code sample examples, use the Code Block. The code will show uniquely so that it sticks out to your readers rather than being executed.

Classic Block With a Classic Block, you can add a block resembling the classic editor and its classic formatting options. It’s a small TinyMCE editor inside a partnership.

Table Block Without the need for plugins or HTML coding knowledge, a Table Block makes it simple to insert a table in WordPress. Choose the layout (default or stripes), enter the required rows and columns, and you’re done. After that, you may add rows and columns to the table’s beginning or end with a single click.

Verse Block Verse Blocks allow you to include poetry or music lyrics. Instead of jumping to a new block, as in the paragraph block, when you click enter, it will hop to a new row. As far as you stay in the same league, you can write as many verses as you like.

Custom HTML Block With Custom HTML Blocks, you can write HTML code and quickly preview the changes.

Pull Quote Block With a Pull Quote Block, you may separate off a section of your content that you wish to emphasize into its block. The formatting of a Pull Quote Block sets it apart from a Quote Block. The edges of a Pull Quote Block are colored.

Preformatted Block A Preformatted Block allows you to show the text on the front end precisely as you input it, much like the preformatted text option in the original TinyMCE editor. All the characters in the preformatted text have the same width since it is in a monospaced typeface.

Layout Elements You may use the blocks in this category to make your post more attractive and arrange it visually appealing. It provides building blocks for adding media items, bright columns, and buttons in various colors.

Button Block You may include a button in your post by using a Button Block. Its shape (round, square, etc.), color, and the result of clicking it may all be changed.

Columns Block The Columns Block makes it quick and simple to show your content in columns (newspaper format) rather than in full width.

Media & Text Block In the traditional editor, aligning graphics and text needed some programming knowledge. You may complete it quickly using the Media & Text Block.

Lines And Separators Block As its name suggests, a Lines and Separators Block enables you to insert separators between different pieces of material. It covers things like line breaks and page breaks.

Final Lines

According to the official WordPress help website, content blocks are “the components for counting content in the new WordPress block editor.” To make a post and page design simpler, easier, and more flexible via blocks, this editor replaces the Tiny MCE editor used by earlier WordPress versions.

Wix vs. Shopify At a Glance

Both platforms offer excellent functionality for building online stores, but Shopify is built specifically for eCommerce, while Wix shines for small businesses or creatives looking for simplicity and flexibility.

Wix is better for small businesses or bloggers who need a user-friendly platform and don’t require advanced eCommerce tools.

Shopify is designed for businesses with larger inventories and global customers, offering more robust features for scaling and selling.

Shopify: The More Scalable eCommerce Solution

When it comes to scaling your eCommerce business, Shopify takes the crown. It’s designed specifically for online selling, offering top-tier shipping and fulfillment benefits. Not only does Shopify have its own fulfillment network, but it also partners with carriers to offer discounts of up to 89% on shipping.

For businesses with high sales volumes, Shopify’s automation features, like inventory management for an unlimited number of products, are unbeatable. Wix, on the other hand, limits you to 50,000 products and offers fewer product variants.

Shopify also integrates with over 6,000 eCommerce-specific apps, such as Klaviyo and Spocket, compared to Wix’s 500+ apps. This means Shopify is more versatile, especially for larger eCommerce operations.

Wix: Better for Creative Design Flexibility

While Shopify is optimized for online stores, Wix excels in site design, offering over 800 templates for free. This makes Wix the better choice for those seeking creative freedom with design.

Unlike Shopify’s structured, block-based editor, Wix provides a drag-and-drop editor, giving users more flexibility to position elements anywhere on the page. Although Shopify’s themes are mobile-responsive by default, Wix requires some manual tweaking for mobile optimization, but the tools for doing so are intuitive.

For small businesses, personal projects, or creative portfolios, Wix's design capabilities may be more appealing.

Marketing: It Depends on Your Audience

Both platforms offer a range of marketing tools, but which is better depends on your focus:

Wix has powerful blogging features and built-in SEO tools that integrate with Semrush for keyword data, making it ideal for content-heavy marketing strategies.

Shopify, while capable of supporting blogs, is geared more toward eCommerce marketing, offering tools like automated abandoned cart recovery and upsell emails. Shopify also supports multicurrency payments and has a multilingual URL feature, which gives it an edge for businesses with an international audience.

Wix Offers More Advanced AI Tools

When it comes to artificial intelligence, Wix is a clear leader. With its AI website builder, you can create a fully functional site in minutes. Wix also offers a variety of AI-driven tools, like SEO assistants, text generators, and image auto-enhancement.

While Shopify has its own AI tools, like product description generators and email optimization features, these are less extensive compared to Wix’s suite of AI-driven functionalities.

When it comes to optimizing your website for search engines, SEO is a critical factor in driving the right customers to your store. Both Wix and Shopify perform exceptionally well in this area, scoring 5 out of 5 in SEO testing. Both platforms offer essential SEO features, including sitemaps and mobile optimization, ensuring your site is well-prepared to rank highly in search results.

Wix’s SEO Features

Wix stands out for its personalized SEO checklist, which provides real-time feedback on your site’s content and settings. This tool ensures you're taking the right steps to improve your site's visibility. One of the most exciting additions is the AI Meta Tag Creator, available to premium users. This tool automates the process of generating meta titles and descriptions, helping you optimize your pages without the hassle of manually entering the data.

Although Wix’s free plan doesn’t include access to the AI Meta Tag Creator, users still benefit from a wide array of SEO tools, including advanced SEO page settings that allow you to customize each page’s title, description, and URL structure.

Shopify’s SEO Features

While Shopify offers standard SEO features, it shines in ecommerce localization. Shopify provides support for 30+ languages through the Translate & Adapt app, allowing businesses to translate their content and reach international audiences. Shopify is also improving its localization capabilities with new ecommerce features, such as automatic site localization based on browser language, and will be removing the Geolocation app by December 2024, streamlining the international experience for businesses.

Internationalization and Localization

For businesses looking to expand globally, Wix leads the way. It supports 180 languages and automatically translates your content for international visitors, simplifying the process of global outreach. Wix’s partnership with Global-e further enhances its ability to assist businesses in selling products across multiple markets, making it a strong contender for international ecommerce.

While Shopify also supports internationalization, its reliance on third-party apps like Translate & Adapt limits its out-of-the-box language capabilities. However, Shopify's ongoing improvements in this area make it a competitive choice for businesses looking to target international markets.

The Winner for SEO: Wix

In the SEO battle, Wix edges out Shopify due to its comprehensive features, including custom SEO support, automatic translation, and AI-powered meta tags. These tools give Wix users an advantage in boosting their site's visibility and appealing to global customers.

Using ZeeDrop for Cross-Listing on Wix and Shopify

For sellers looking to maximize their product reach, ZeeDrop Crosslister is an invaluable tool. It supports both Wix and Shopify, making it easy to manage listings across multiple platforms. ZeeDrop simplifies the process of transferring products from any suppliers  more than 300  to your Wix or Shopify store, ensuring seamless integration and efficient cross-listing. This tool helps sellers save time, reduce errors, and expand their business by reaching a broader customer base on both platforms.

Which Is Cheaper: Shopify or Wix?

Both platforms offer competitive pricing, but Wix generally costs less:

Wix plans start at $17/month, while Shopify’s basic plan begins at $29/month. However, Shopify does offer an enticing $1/month deal for the first three months, which may be a deciding factor for new businesses looking to save early on.

For more advanced plans, Shopify can get expensive, with its top-tier Shopify Plus plan starting at $2,300/month, whereas Wix caps out at $159/month.

Shopify vs. Wix: Which Should You Choose?

Ultimately, the choice between Wix and Shopify comes down to your specific business needs:

Choose Wix if you’re a small business, creative professional, or blogger looking for design flexibility and ease of use.

Choose Shopify if you’re running a medium to large-scale eCommerce business with a global customer base and require advanced inventory, marketing, and fulfillment features.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Can I use Wix for eCommerce? Yes, but Wix is better suited for smaller eCommerce operations.

Which is better for larger businesses, Wix or Shopify? Shopify is ideal for larger businesses, offering better scalability and advanced eCommerce features.

Does Wix have better design features than Shopify? Wix offers more design flexibility, while Shopify is more structured but optimized for mobile responsiveness.

In conclusion, while both Wix and Shopify have their merits, Shopify is the superior platform for serious eCommerce businesses, while Wix excels in creativity and user-friendliness for smaller sites.

How WordPress Democratizes Publishing & Fuels an Economy

New Post has been published on https://thedigitalinsider.com/how-wordpress-democratizes-publishing-fuels-an-economy/

How WordPress Democratizes Publishing & Fuels an Economy

It seems like an odd mix on the surface. On one hand, WordPress is a content management system (CMS) that aims to democratize publishing.

It’s right there in the mission statement. That harkens back to its roots as a blogging platform. We install the software and push our content out into the world.

On the other hand, WordPress has become a tool to make money. Freelancers, agencies, and DIY users can build commercial websites with it. Developers create themes and plugins as part of an ecosystem.

Just so we’re clear: A corporation can use WordPress to bolster its billion-dollar portfolio. Just as a teenager can publish their thoughts.

Perhaps this sounds like two mutually exclusive ventures. However, they’ve coexisted for over 20 years.

That’s the juxtaposition of free, open-source software. So far, WordPress has handled it as well as anyone.

How has the project done it? And what potential risks could derail the balance? Let’s attempt to make sense of it all!

A Foundation for the Web

WordPress project co-founder Matt Mullenweg has said he wants the software to be the “operating system for the open web.” It’s one way to marry commercialization with democratization.

It makes sense for content creators and site builders. The software serves as a foundational piece. It’s free, widely supported, and extensible. Take it and build whatever you want.

This idea borrows from operating systems like Linux, MacOS, and Windows. They lay the foundation for a variety of use cases. An enterprise IT department depends on an OS. So does a student or small business.

Free software lowers the barrier to entry. Sure, there’s a cost associated with hosting a website. However, you’re not stuck with a particular host. WordPress is open-source. It can be hosted just about anywhere – even on a local machine.

This allows for a multitude of possibilities. One can publish, make money, or both. Those interested in web development can learn the software’s inner workings.

Expand it, change it, or use it as-is. That’s the flexibility of WordPress.

The Challenge of a Diverse User Base

As a project, WordPress has adeptly walked a tightrope. It has provided an opportunity for people around the world. It has also created an economy based on its ecosystem and custom development potential.

Maintaining balance is a challenge – and a great responsibility. The software must remain an attractive option for both camps.

Bloggers and small organizations depend on WordPress for low-or-no-cost flexibility. Developers, freelancers, and agencies want a powerful tool to fuel their growth.

That’s why some features spark debate. Take the Block Editor, for example.

Theme and plugin developers were concerned about this shift toward block-based content. How would it impact their products? Would they be rendered useless? Or require a complete overhaul?

Everyday users also had concerns. Would a new editing experience make it harder to publish blog posts? How large is the learning curve? Would it leave their existing website in the dust?

User perception also plays a role. Some may see a feature as favoring one side or the other. Sometimes, commercial and individual interests diverge.

That places project leadership in a tough spot. You can’t please everyone. But serving a diverse user base is part of the job.

Keeping the Coexistence for Years to Come

So, how can WordPress continue to provide the best solution for both worlds? It will take a concerted effort. And things seem to be off to a good start.

Recent years have seen a focus on ease of use. In addition, tools like the Site Editor aim to make a default WordPress install more powerful. Plans for a redesigned admin interface are also in the works.

These are all positive steps. A more user-friendly WordPress opens the door to attracting more users. Novices will be able to get started more quickly.

There are also opportunities for those with a commercial agenda. Commercial block themes have yet to take off. But block-based plugins have. There is plenty of space for growth in these areas.

What could go wrong? There are a few potential trouble spots.

A change in project leadership could push WordPress in a more commercial direction. A new regime could theoretically focus on features that primarily benefit corporate users.

The composition of WordPress project teams could also have an influence. Yes, some contributors are volunteers. However, sponsored contributors are only increasing their role in how things work.

One or more sponsor companies may gain an outsized say in the future. What if a future WordPress version integrated something akin to Google’s AMP? This nominally open-sourced technology caused a stir. This sort of move could harm the software’s reputation.

That’s just an example – however unlikely. The point is that maintaining balance requires stewardship. It’s an important part of the project’s future success.

It’s Possible to Do Good and Make Money

As a market leader, WordPress is in a unique position. It’s not a commercial product. However, we can use it for commercial purposes.

The software can also give an online voice to just about anyone. It’s a tool that facilitates free speech – even if a person’s circumstances can get in the way.

And, unlike large companies, the WordPress project isn’t beholden to anyone. For example, it doesn’t have to bend to the will of an oppressive regime to access its people. There’s no profit or shareholders to worry about.

Let’s hope it stays that way. We’re living in a world where costs are rising – as are barriers. WordPress bucks this trend as free software.

All you need is a copy of WordPress and an idea. What’s next is up to you.

In the dynamic world of crypto, transaction speed is a key factor that influences the adoption and efficiency of blockchains. Recently, an analysis highlighted the fastest blockchains at the moment, revealing impressive performances and significant technological advancements. Solana: The fastest blockchain in the crypto world! Solana stands out as the fastest blockchain, with a record number of 91 million transactions processed in a single day, on April 6, 2024. This feat represents an average rate of 1500 crypto transactions per second (TPS), which is 46 times faster than Ethereum and more than 5 times faster than Polygon. Despite these impressive numbers, Solana has only exploited 1.6% of its theoretical maximum speed of 65,000 TPS. In second place, we find Sui, another non-EVM blockchain, which reached 854 crypto TPS in July 2023. Other fast non-EVM blockchains include TON with 175 TPS and Near Protocol with 118 TPS. On average, non-EVM blockchains are almost 4 times faster than those compatible with EVM.

Are EVM blockchains less efficient? Among the EVM blockchains, BNB Smart Chain (BSC) leads the race with 378 TPS, followed by Polygon with 190 TPS. However, even combined, Ethereum and its top ten scaling solutions reach a total of 500 crypto TPS. This places them ahead of BSC but still behind Solana and Sui. This data shows that non-EVM blockchains currently dominate in terms of crypto transaction processing speed. This could be attributed to more efficient architecture! Or to less congestion due to a lower number of transactions on the chain. Nevertheless, it is important to note that almost all real TPS records were set in the last 12 months. This indicates a trend towards continuous improvement in blockchain performance. While Solana and Sui lead the charge as the fastest blockchains, it remains to be seen how future improvements and planned updates will affect their ability to handle an even higher volume of crypto transactions without compromising network stability.

Mastering Markdown: A Comprehensive Guide to Formatting Text Easily

Markdown is a lightweight markup language that allows users to format text quickly and easily without the need for complex coding or software. Originally developed by John Gruber and Aaron Swartz in 2004, markdown has gained popularity among writers, bloggers, developers, and anyone who needs to format text for various purposes. In this comprehensive guide, we will explore the ins and outs of Markdown, providing you with the knowledge and skills to master this powerful tool.

What is Markdown?

At its core, Markdown is a plain text formatting syntax. It uses a simple and intuitive set of conventions to indicate how text should be formatted. Whether you need to add headings, create lists, emphasize text, or insert links and images, Markdown has you covered. One of its key advantages is its readability - Markdown syntax resembles natural language, making it easy to learn and use.

Getting Started with Markdown

To start using Markdown, all you need is a plain text editor and a basic understanding of its syntax. Let's take a look at some of the most common Markdown elements:

Headings: To create headings, simply prefix the text with one to six hash symbols (#). The number of hash symbols indicates the heading level.

Emphasis: You can italicize text by surrounding it with asterisks (*) or underscores (_), and bold text by using double asterisks (**) or double underscores (__).

Lists: Markdown supports both ordered and unordered lists. To create a bulleted list, simply start each line with an asterisk (*) or a hyphen (-). For numbered lists, start each line with a number followed by a period.

Links: To insert a link, use square brackets [] to enclose the anchor text, followed by parentheses () containing the URL.

Images: Inserting images in Markdown is similar to adding links, but with an exclamation mark (!) before the square brackets. This indicates that it's an image rather than a regular link.

Advanced Markdown Techniques

In addition to the basics, Markdown offers several advanced techniques to enhance your formatting capabilities. These include:

Tables: Markdown allows you to create simple tables using pipes (|) to separate columns and hyphens (-) to define the header row.

Blockquotes: Use the greater-than symbol (>) to create blockquotes for emphasizing quoted text or citing sources.

Code Blocks: Markdown supports inline code formatting as well as fenced code blocks for displaying multiple lines of code.

Conclusion

Mastering Markdown can significantly improve your productivity when it comes to writing and formatting text. Its simplicity and versatility make it a valuable tool for writers, bloggers, developers, and anyone else who needs to format text quickly and efficiently. By learning the basics and exploring its advanced features, you'll be well-equipped to make the most of Markdown in your projects. So why wait? Start mastering Markdown today!
