Shopify removes native features in updates to force merchants into paid app subscriptions

Shopify platform updates routinely remove or degrade previously available native functionality, with the removal justified by directing merchants to third-party apps. Merchants accumulate a fragmented stack of app subscriptions for features that were previously built-in, with each app adding monthly costs and an independent support relationship. When the combined stack breaks, neither Shopify nor individual app vendors accept accountability for the interaction.
