  • I use 2FAS Auth personally as an iOS user. Is it considered a good choice?

  • Vance on Trump admin’s plans to bomb Houthis: ‘I just hate bailing Europe out again’

    Jump

  • Very true, where it becomes strange is that once again the US just like Russia immediately thinks that the only solution is to bomb the shit out of everything and then have the gall to say that the rest of the world should be grateful.

  • Vance on Trump admin’s plans to bomb Houthis: ‘I just hate bailing Europe out again’

    Jump

  • I’m confused, when exactly has the EU or any other collective European entity requested the US to bomb the Houthis? Isn’t this recent flare-up related to the failed ceasefire between Israel and Hamas that the Trump administration has been facilitating?

  • Apple TV+ is a great service, good app interface and some decent series there too. Too bad I had to get rid of it due to the current US administration and their policies. Apart from the default apps I switched everything to European and/or non-profit open source alternatives, which was surprisingly easy.

  • Frontline report: 50% of Moscow’s fuel supply at risk after Ukrainian drone strike on its largest oil refinery

  • And surprise surprise Trump helps out Putin by negotiating a ceasefire for energy infrastructure.

  • LibreOffice is a free, open-source office suite developed by TDF, based in Germany.

    Jump

  • Libreoffice is amazing. I had dismissed it ages ago back when I had no reason to boycott the US, but now I tried it again after switching to Linux and it works amazingly good.

    There’s no need for MS Office for personal use, though unfortunately for my large corporate employer it probably isn’t going to realistically be considered.

  • "Too Good To Go", Danish company that helps prevent food waste and save money on food at the same time

  • We got something similar called ResQ in Finland, works great but I guess it’s available only in very few countries.

  • Linux or Windows.

    Jump

  • I switched to Linux and it was an improvement for me, but of course it depends on what you use your pc for.

  • We need decent European alternatives for robot vaccuums.

  • People who joined Lemmy in the last few days thanks to posts on /r/buyfromEU, how are you doing?

    Jump

  • Great experience, Voyager is a great app and Lemmy feels kinda like Reddit in the good old days. Still have to check Reddit threads every now and then through search results while looking for info, though. Hopefully we can get more content going, but I guess that’s up to us users :)

  • Calls for boycotting US products spread in northern Europe

    Jump

  • Gotten rid of nearly every US digital service I have. Physical stuff I will still probably roll with my Apple devices until they wear out since they're relatively new, but almost all the data and apps are basically European and/or open source services. Work related stuff remains the challenge. Next phone will be HMD.

  • Calls for boycotting US products spread in northern Europe

    Jump

  • Have already replaced basically all US software products for personal use. Unfortunately work related stuff can't be boycotted yet, but hopefully we can see an improvement there too ASAP. Hardware still from Apple, but will once it becomes time to replace it I will definitely switch to a HMD phone.

  • Trump's treatment of Ukraine just cost the US a refueling point

    Jump

  • Feels almost unbelievable to hear that there still are people and companies standing up for their values and principles even in the face of losing profits or comfort. I thought that true western values had finally died and we were collapsing but this give a tiny sliver of hope at least.

  • Diplomacy dies on live TV as Trump and Vance gang up to bully Ukraine leader

    Jump

  • Good job America! Proud of y’all for once again standing up for your values of oppression and greed.

  • Canada will send $5B in aid to Ukraine using funds from seized Russian assets, PM Trudeau says

    Jump

  • Great to see the Europe and Canada really stepping up now with the Ukraine support. There was decent support before but it’s being taken to a whole new level and I think Canada and Europe could work on many partnerships going forward.

  • Thanks, great reply! Strong argument overall, maybe the only major disagreement here is with nuclear energy. Here in Finland electricity is some of the cheapest in Europe and while it’s not entirely due to nuclear that is a key factor for us in self-reliance and energy security especially when you’re going down the renewable road, because you do need some kind of a stable backbone for days where solar and wind just don’t produce enough, at least until there are better storage options. There’s a huge need to optimize the energy mix with renewables because it’s unsustainable to have these massive price fluctuations currently and I don’t see many solutions currently that have more potential than Nuclear, especially if we can make SMR’s a reality. I am of course aware also that Nuclear by itself definitely isn’t a cheap way to produce electricity, but I believe especially SMR’s and other advancements can do a lot there.

  • Thanks, that is a relief to hear, the Russia issue is the most pressing from a foreigners perspective like mine, but for you guys of course there are a lot of other things at stake too. Hope whoever’s in power keeps Germany as a European powerhouse and one of our most crucial allies!

  • Good, substantive comment. I disagree on the Covid part though, Sweden managed Covid wonderfully with quite liberal policies on that front. Don’t you worry with Die Linke that they’re quite pro-Russian or is that a mistaken view from me?
