You can help change this. Syria's political situation has changed—all sanctions have been lifted. Many companies just haven't updated their policies yet. If you work at Modrinth or know someone who does, share our resources with their legal or compliance team. Sometimes all it takes is one person asking the right question.

You can help by voting on this page to show demand, sharing it on social media, and contacting Modrinth directly to request they restore access for Syrian users.
