Every member of Bandcamp United Union bargaining team was laid off
As news hit that about 60 of Bandcamp’s 118 employees had been laid off, one group was particularly affected – members of the Bandcamp United Union.
All of the union’s eight-person bargaining team has been laid off, along with 40 of its 67 official members lost their jobs.
The union said that 50% of union members on the editorial team, 12 of 13 union-eligible support staff, and two-thirds of union-eligible engineers were all laid off.
The union had been scheduled to return to the bargaining table today.

I’m heartbroken, I was planning on buying a ton of stuff from Bandcamp but I can’t reward this behavior
There’s a sore need for a new company in old-Bandcamp style, where the current artists can move to.
There’s a good chance that sogntradr will drop the shop after all, their core business is music licensing, not sales.
I’ve earned $64,000 USD so far this year while studying full-time. I’m making a lot of money using an internet business opportunity I learned about. It’s quite user-friendly, and I’m overjoyed that I discovered it.

I believe they’re still doing Bandcamp Fridays. If so that remains a viable option to directly support your favorite artists on the platform.
