Because a lot of people asked Codeberg for merch, I reached out to @Hellotux and they prepared some garments: https://hellotux.com/Codeberg

Beyond the sample that I was sent to review the colors of (disclosure alert), the nonprofit doesn't get any commissions/benefits from this (at its explicit request). Our logo is licensed under the CC0, so others can just print the logo on e.g. t-shirts.

(For impartiality's sake, I also reached out to other vendors, but haven't gotten that far yet...)

@n0toose @Hellotux the problem is that german-centric pricing.

35 euros for a polo? Wtf here is 20 and is already expensive. 12-15 is the norm...

@echedellelr Well, it's embroidened and by a so-called mom-and-pop business, but I understand that that doesn't necessarily help with the fact that the price can remain prohibitively high for those that can only afford to look at the price.

Apart from printing it on your own (which I'd fully endorse), I don't have much more to suggest and I haven't been able to find (and move forward with) more accessible options.

@echedellelr I must also add that the business is Hungarian and the Euro price applies wherever Euro is used as a currency. But a large percentage of the free and open-source software community resides in Germany, so you might be right.
