Hi,

First of all apologies if I chose the wrong category for this as I wasn’t sure.
So the question is, I did run a shopify inspector on my website / store and it shows I have 51 errors, 577 issues and 40+ k warnings - I just wanted to know how serious of a problem is this and if it is, how do I solve it?
Majority of these are about cookies, just wondering if anyone else had the same feedback from preview inspector.

I haven’t done nothing much and just recently created this store - but due to being a newbie in shopify or store building in general, I might be overthinking.
Thanks in advance.
