Framer just removed the template review gate.
Anyone can publish now. No waiting, no approval. Just ship.
Honestly? I don't know how I feel about this.
On one hand, it's freeing. Less friction, faster iteration. Good for creators who've been waiting weeks just to get feedback.
But that review process was doing something important that nobody really talked about. It forced you to actually finish. To test properly. To not ship something embarrassing.
Now that's gone. And I think the marketplace is about to get very noisy, very fast.
For buyers, that means more scrolling to find something worth buying. For sellers, it means your reputation is the only filter left. Nobody's checking your work before it goes live, which means your community presence, your consistency, the trust you build here, that's what separates you now.
Genuinely curious what others think. Is this a good move or are we about to watch quality take a hit?
