Karl and Taylor are back for a solo episode packed with updates. Taylor breaks down major changes to the Shopify Theme Editor, a big B2B announcement that flipped the script on Plus-only features, and a raft of Dev Changelog items.

Karl shares a real-world debugging war story about a Shopify Function that was silently discarding all its input — and the 10KB metafield limit that caused it.
