       A grim reminder how western-centric @Mastodon is when their merch only ship to select European and north American countries only. Ever heard of Shopify? Etsy? 🙄

       @afif we are as disappointed as you that we're not currently able to send out our merch more broadly! The issue is that we'd need to do paperwork (and incur costs) for every location we need to ship to, as well as finding ways to keep the delivery costs suitable in each region. We're based in Europe, and that's why at the moment we (mostly) ship within Europe.

       @Mastodon @afif the issue is Mastodon fundamentally doesn’t understand ecommerce. It’s not their fault, their job is to run a social network. But yeah it’s frustratingPS. There’s no paperwork needed to ship to most countries. You fill a custom form, but it’s the same for any country you ship to. Only US is being a pain right now. No need to register with any government you ship to. In an ideal world the logistics should be outsourced to a logistics partner or 3PL that knows their stuff.
