Shopify is a stupid fucking name. I can only assume the company and service is equally as stupid.

Are you trolling or have you really never heard of shopify? Prolly every ecommerce website you've ever visited was built by either wix, big commerce or shopify with shopify (iirc) holding the largest market share of the 3. That may have changed since I last looked at adding e-commerce builders to my investment portfolio but theyre definitely top 3.

Next thing you know he's going to say WordPress isn't used by anyone.

It's being used by less people now because their CEO is a fucking idiot who's trying to destroy it.

I've heard the (stupid) name before but had no idea what they did. Not everyone on Lemmy works in tech or has investment portfolios... But it sounds like if I've bought something online I've probably used them before?

Yep. You've probably heard of square space, shopify is similar. All the online small businesses I know use it, and many larger ones too
