Etsy sellers are going on strike...

If you haven't heard the news, Etsy is raising its transaction fee on April 11. And on that same day, thousands of Etsy sellers are going on strike. Here's what we know so far.

What does Etsy plan to do with 1.5% of our profits in 2022? After all, that's the exact percentage that Etsy is planning to increase its transaction fee this month. Some Etsy sellers aren't happy, and that's apparent by the strike they're planning on the same day.
