ill be the first to say i think those youtube videos about the indie web are really annoying. have they ever considered that by posting videos of them browsing indie websites they undermine the point of indie websites. this comment has been made possible by my first appearance in one of these videos

like do they not recognize the absurd irony in the fact that they're posting videos about how meaningless large social media platforms have become. on a large social media platform. LEAVE ME ALONE

you should not get to passively consume a labor of love is all i'm saying

yes! especially since a lot of people here left/renounced other forms of social media for various reasons. i get the gesture but there's a reason people choose to create and exist within the indie web, so to disregard that (by putting a site in one of these vids) without even asking before hand...cmon...

i feel a similar way. even when people are being nice, being in those videos makes me want to crawl under a rock. i saw that your site appeared via a link on mine, so i apologize!

girl-wonderlost – perfectly put, it just feels so odd. like a stranger wandering in with no real understanding of the etiquette or purpose. and ribose – not your fault no worries but very funny to me how you are like patient zero for these vids 😭

it feels strangely voyeuristic sometimes like it's making a spectacle out of sites created Out of the desire to get out of social media making a spectacle out of everything 😭 i wanna give the benefit of the doubt but i fear it invites a lot of the 'doing things for the aesthetic and then getting bored of it 2 months later' type of crowd

that is such a good point. it feels like common courtesy to at least ask if people want to be featured?? I think it's interesting because surely the thought is "well who wouldn't want to get more exposure, and more followers?" which is a very conventional social media way to see it

I was somehow just thinking of this last night; that i *really* don't want to be put in a yt video lol. I've seen my site on Pinterest and Tiktok, but for some reason that doesn't bother me as much.

Because Mercari ships items from Japan and they are forwarded overseas through intermediaries, aren't the prices higher? Wouldn't it be cheaper to use domestic flea‑market apps instead( ˙꒳˙ )?

I was curious because I'm thinking that someday I'd like to use Mercari to sell to overseas buyers.

@yagara yes it's much more expensive!! But it's easier to buy them directly off mercari myself and have them shipped via a proxy service, because many of the second-hand apps in my country are just taking the listings from mercari japan and reposting them for hundreds of dollars more (without even actually having the item). I also wouldn't have access to a lot of the same items

@yagara so personally for me, it's worth the little bit of extra cost to shop on mercari japan for items that I want in my collection. ex; ebay would try to charge me $200 for a black jack figure that I could get for $20 on mercari japan, even with the proxy fees + shipping it's still a better deal for me ^^!

I see… It’s really expensive to buy Japanese works overseas… I went to the Philippines once, and I was surprised that even used (English-language) manga were sold for fairly high prices. In Japan, you can usually buy a used manga volume for about ¥180 (1.16 USD). If you’re lucky you can get them for ¥50 (0.32 USD) or ¥80 (0.52 USD). Newest volumes are a bit more expensive, but even those are around ¥400 (2.58USD).

@yagara omg that is wild to me, here if you want to buy a english print volume of manga new it's usually around $12-$18 ( ¥1800-¥2700) per volume. Sometimes you can find manga second hand for $5-$10 but that's usually for series that are unknown...sometimes it's more expensive to buy a second-hand manga if it's one that's out of print. Some of the english print black jack manga volumes are very expensive @_@

Wow...😮 I wanted the English edition of Black Jack too, but I searched on Mercari and it was so expensive that I gave up. Maybe the price wouldn’t be much different even if you bought it in an English-speaking country... (The Japanese Black Jack volumes I have were about ¥200 (1.29 USD) each used. I went to several secondhand bookstores and I think I got them pretty cheaply.)
