Squarespace jacked their prices up this week and customers are livid. I've spent a few hours wading through social media posts and replies about whether it's time to leave and what better options exist. Some people are offering a single platform answer ("This is why I'm on WordPress") while others are pointing out that it's not super cost effective to redesign an entire website over a $100 extra bucks a year.
But there's a third group of people who are realizing we've struck an iceberg and we need to start preparing our own lifeboats.
I have long thought the answer to Squarespace's demise was web designers building their own cooperative platform. But it's not just them that we need to be worried about.
Come along for the ride!
