Hey Hubski team,

I started my website, shirtwascash, with a mix of 4chan and reddit involvement. We have done pretty well since launch and I truly believe user-submitted apparel (especially using our printing method) is an untapped revenue stream for a platform like this. I've been on Hubski a few times while looking for reddit-alternatives and know this community is a little outside of our current niche but I do think various apparel and products, especially user-submitted, is a very viable way for you to consider financing things better.

I am not particularly offering anything here besides giving you a serious and tell-all type discussion on my thoughts. I would like to help if I can since you guys/gals are obviously putting your all into things. If you'd like to chat, reach out to me at [email protected]. I'd love to be candid and give you an inside scoop on my thoughts and potential things you could do.

Ok. Will do. If anything, I'd be interested in improving on the quality and/or price of our swag.
