Yeah I code website so after I would know how I could build my own CMS and sell the shovels when others are building their online stores I do what people don't and the payment system is also built with programming language. Shopify is worth billions so if I code a better CMS than Shopify I'm 100 % sure to become millionaire and multi-millionaireThat's an interesting take on it. I've been with Shopify for over 5 years with no complaints. Their T & C are not onerous. As long as you're not trying to scam your customers, there shouldn't be any problem.
It's not really the platform itself that people sometimes have trouble with, it's Shopify Payments. Like any payment processor, if you get too many chargebacks or there's some evidence of fraud, they can disable your ability to use it. But, you can still use other processors like PayPal.
Coding your own website does give you more control, but if you're selling something, you still have to use a payment processor and abide by their terms. With plenty of themes to choose from, thousands of apps that integrate with your store and help available 24/7, I would be crazy to deal with the headaches of coding and maintaining my own stand-alone website. Running the business is enough work in and of itself.
