Heads Up POD Sellers -- Amazon Shipping NOT RECOGNIZED by Etsy

If you are a POD Etsy seller and your fulfillment partner (for instance Printful) has recently switched to using Amazon Logistics for delivery, as of right now you're f'ed with Etsy. Etsy DOES NOT recognize Amazon Logistics's tracking numbers. Check your orders. In particular, any orders that you had to mark shipped yourself by manually entering the tracking will be marked as "NO TRACKING."

I have tried asking about this because it's looking like I will suddenly lose my Star Seller badge over this issue even though everything was in fact shipped on time with tracking.

The tracking numbers that were uploaded directly from the printer to Etsy seem to be mostly okay, but anything that I had to cut and paste myself due to custom/ special orders has been marked as lacking tracking.

Pinterest accusing me of "self harm" for a... possum meme

So a couple of days ago Pinterest sends me an email accusing me of promoting self harm. I'm like... ???? Of course I can't see the pin they're talking about. But I figure this is like the time they accused me of "obscenity" for saving a color chart (which was literally strips of color with hex codes on them) and "hateful activities" for saving a guideline to photo editing settings.

So, I appeal the removal on principle. Yesterday they reinstated it. But then I guess someone at Pinterest HQ took my winning the appeal personally and at 3 am I got another email warning me about the same pin. It's apparently been removed again and I'm warned again about violating their Community Guidelines.

What is the pin? That old meme from about 2019 that either features a possum or a raccoon and says some variation of "Live fast, eat trash, get hit by a car." You can find dozens if not hundreds of variations of this meme on Pinterest not to mention Redbubble, Teepublic, etc. sold on stickers and t-shirts.

This is the dumbest shit I have ever seen. I wouldn't care but I recently started pinning some of my own work to try to promote it. That's actually when this stuff started. I think they just want me to pay them to promote my pins.
