Microsoft's getting cold feet and is now 'pledging' its new commitment to Europe

  • As long as it isn't US chocolate.

    • Dutch

    Getting Rid of Big Tech : Tweakers community makes complete guide with European alternatives

  • Tweakers is a site for computer people, so there is a lot of technical knowledge. "Normies" are probably better off starting at https://better-tech.eu/tldr/ (my site).

    • Lets contribute to OpenStreetMaps!

  • Added. Thanks.

    • Lets contribute to OpenStreetMaps!

  • I added the apps to https://better-tech.eu/search/article/maps/ to help spread the word.

    • Companies (Sony) rising prices globally to cushion US prices

  • You make a great argument for boycotting Sony. If enough people in Europe stop buying their products, that equation will flip and Sony will change course.

    • Introducing Waterfox Private Search (Beta)

  • If you want to support European search you are better off either using Mojeek (they have their own index) or Qwant/Ecosia (who are building their own engine).

    • Best European vpn solution?

  • Thanks. I have been working on it for a while. Always good to hear that it's useful.

    • Germany's Sovereign Tech Agency will give €384,000 to the OpenStreetMap Project

  • NS also does a good job, so I have created this page: https://better-tech.eu/search/article/public-transport/

    Now all I need is the rest of Europe.

    • Germany's Sovereign Tech Agency will give €384,000 to the OpenStreetMap Project

  • I get reasonable results from Citymapper and Mapy. HERE doesn't seem to know that buses exist.

    • A startpage for the movement (help wanted)

  • I sent an email to the address on the About-page.

    • Buy European @feddit.uk

    A startpage for the movement (help wanted)

    I created this page so we can have a link to point people to. What this needs:

    • A short and memorable url.
    • A better design? It's now under my project and thus in the same design, but I would prefer it to be a separate thing.
    • The url in the logo.

    Help is very welcome.

    Some tech-related things I personally use instead of their american counterparts

  • It's absolutely not a simple thing, but if we let the web turn into Chrome-only then Ladybird doesn't stand a chance. For now, more market share for Firefox and Firefox-based browsers is the only argument against making websites only work in Chrome.

    • Some tech-related things I personally use instead of their american counterparts

  • I would rather see people use Firefox than Vivaldi. We need a more diverse browser engine market to keep the web open. More here: https://better-tech.eu/web/article/switch-browsers/

    • Tony's Chocolonely

  • It says not to chill it - I prefer cold chocolate

    I tried, and they don't actually come to take it away if you ignore that and chill it anyway. :)
