My company, Recharge, just acquired Skio for $105m. This is the largest private acquisition in the space ever. Just 5 years ago I got a crazy phone call that nearly killed us... Here’s the story I've never told anyone before:

I'm moving on from @Shopify.
When I joined 7.5 years ago, friends were literally taking bets on whether I'd last a year. The idea of me thriving inside a large company (and Shopify was a lot smaller back then!) felt unlikely. Most people assumed I'd be itching to start my next thing.
Instead, Shopify became my company.
I wasn't a founder, but @tobi always made me feel like one. It wasn't a startup, but Shopify moves like one. And the mission isn't just words — it shows up in the decisions, every day.
I got to wear a lot of hats. Introducing Shop to the world. Going deep on the rails of how money moves on the internet. Reimagining Shopify for the age of AI through design.
Leaving is hard. Shopify changed my life in more ways than I can recount. It taught me how to build for the long term, gave me a bar for craft and ambition I'll carry into everything that comes next, and showed me what it looks like when a company lives its mission.
In my next chapter, I'm getting the opportunity to bring together all the things I've obsessed over the past decade — consumer mobile, finance and money movement, design, AI — into a single role. More on that soon.

Might have cooked a little bit too much.

Hey @Support my account with over 14,000 followers has been hacked.
I was logged out from my account across all my devices. when I tried logging back in it showed "suspicious login prevented." then I checked my email and saw my account email had already been changed.
the crazy part? I never got a notification about a new device logging in.
It took me years to get to the point i'm at right now. this is basically my business. I get all my clients from X.
losing it isn't just losing followers, it's losing my livelihood.
If you guys could RT this it and follow me it would mean the world to me, and also please do tag @Support . The more attention the better.
Will make a comeback stronger than ever.

Thank you to the community in the contra/paper challenge that supports my designs and appreciates my visual authenticity.
If you are a faceless account it is always difficult to grow on socials but what makes the growth even more impressive, it is that the people really judge you based on your design quality, not your character.

Fav memory from the Shopify office at 80 Spadina. Some stories are too good to stay in DMs.
Honestly, Shopify deserves a book

I’ll gladly cover Pratham’s missing wages and incentives in full.
Furthermore, I’ll cover any and all legal fees should Pratham or his father wish to take legal action against his employer.

This is how designers get exploited. I joined Lander studio (@Praha37v ) without a contract. No written agreement. No notice period. Just mutual trust. I never joined to earn a lot of money - but to learn new things, meet new people, build meaningful connections, in general to gain experience & grow. Structure was simple: – ₹40,000/month base – ~10% incentive on client projects I worked on I showed up consistently for ~6 months. Delivered on multiple client projects. Worked over 12 hrs a day with no fixed holidays. Then things changed. When I decided to leave, surprisingly I was given 3 options to get my pending dues: Work 1 more month → no incentives paid Work 2 months, complete 10 templates → 50% incentives + salary Work 3 months, complete 15 templates → 80% incentives + salary (That’s ~1 template every 3 days. 12+ hrs a day.) And obviously I didn’t agree to these terms. Now, despite multiple follow-ups, my dues are still pending. Breakdown: – ₹40,000 (salary of the last month) – ~$900 from 3 client projects Total: ~₹1.3L Instead of clearing the dues, I am also seeing the work I contributed in the last month to being used commercially on framer marketplace with a completely different account (not his usual account). I’m not here to create any drama - just asking for what’s fair. Asking the pay for 300+ hrs of hardwork. Praha, please clear the pending amount. At last I just want to say that I am not only standing up to get my money, but also for myself, for my right, for what I deserve. And honestly it’s too much stress for me as a 18y/o, so want to resolve it as soon as possible. Fellow designers: If this feels unfair to you too, Would really appreciate every kind of support in bringing this post visibility so that no other designers go through this trauma. Thank you.
