@davidrevoy @sven_ola Is there a way to buy your books from a EU-based web store? DriveThru is a US company, and in the current climate I'd rather prefer my money to not cross the ocean.

@emilion @sven_ola Hey Emilion, I totally understand, and I would do the same 👍

Unfortunately, for the self publishing books 100% made with FLOSS, that was the only company/solution I found long time ago, before that was so problematic (the Brexit put a lot of tax on the UK print pod). I might need to look for a EU print-on-demand solution soon.

For the version of the publisher Silly Studio (Italian publisher), they just put their Italian/English version in the shop https://sillystudiosofficial.com/shop/

@emilion @sven_ola Very interesting, thank you for the link!

Edit: just a traditional printer, not a "print on demand"+"ship" type of service. I can't afford to manage a stock and do shipping myself unfortunately.
