I just accidentally came across https://www.squidapp.co/ , an alternative to Google's news feed for Android. Only been using it for a day, so no verdict yet, but my first impression is positive. The UI is slick, and the news are relevant. Developed by a Swedish company. #buyeuropean #BuyEuropeanTech #degoogle #boycottusa

About 3 years ago Wise bank started offering local bank accounts in my country. The next day I initiated the closure of my "traditional" bank accounts and since then I only have a Wise account. I'm still alive. I recommend it to anyone who doesn't need a loan/mortgage. Simple, cheap, digital, and European. #BuyEuropeanTech #neobank #wise

My household is becoming a #philips showroom. Listen #philips, have you seen my offer? That I buy your robot vacuum the day you turn up on Mastodon? #bigbusiness Ok I raise the odds: after your first post I will turn on my dad's Philips turntable he bought in the 70's in the BRD. I play one of his Beatles records, and post it here. How does that sound? #whybrandsdontcare #BuyEuropean #BuyEuropeanTech

Ok #philips here is the deal: I promise that after your first post on #mastodon I will buy one of your robot vacuum cleaners. I would replace my Xiaomi that is dying anyway. Big business here #philips, what do you say? #BuyEuropean #BuyEuropeanTech #BigBusiness

After discovering countless #philips items in my household, I decided my next monitor will have to be #philips as well. Arrived today, the price is less than 100 EUR. Made in China, but I want to hope that fractions of what I paid stays in Europe. #philips, are you on #mastodon yet? #BuyEuropean #BuyEuropeanTech

I tested today the #magicearth navigation app as an alternative to #HereWeGo. Both are developed in the EU, and even though Magic Earth feels less mature than the Here navigation, I put my vote on Magic Earth. There is one thing that bugs me, how are they going to make money? Everything they offer is free, and investors money usually dries up very quickly. What is the plan? There must be one. #buyeuropean #BuyEuropeanTech #boycottusa

My personal web app project back in 2010.
Hosting - Mochahost (US)
Analytics - Google (US)
Payments - Paypal (US)

My new project in 2025 https://backtoeu.eu (hidden promotion)
Hosting - Site.eu (EU somewhere)
Analytics - piwik.pro (Poland)
Custom forms - tally.so (India, Le Chat misled me here a bit)
Payments - mollie (Netherlands)

Too ealry to say how good these providers are, but the alternative is definielty there. #buyeuropean #buyeuropeantech #boycottusa

Fellow rebels, I would need your views on my side hustle:

I built for myself this alter pc and thought it may be useful for others too. Parts are of EU origin. Cheap compared to Linux laptops, but its good enough to get a feel about life without bigtech. Its more for the average internet users than the Fediverse, but we need the average users to make an impact. Please help me with a boost, I would love to get feedback from a wider audience #buyeuropean #buyeuropeantech

I bought this #overmax 5.1 projector about a year ago. Nothing fancy, but we love it for watching movies in the evening. Overmax headquarters in Poland. It would be an overstatement to say it is European (manufactured in China), but has some traces of being it. The price was about 230 EUR at the time, and it proved to be good value for money. #BuyEuropeanTech #buyeuropean #boycottusa

@Vivaldi @jon Absolutely love how vivaldi escapes ads in the YouTube videos! #degoogle #buyeuropean #BuyEuropeanTech

He can change his mind, the damage is done. Third week without Gmail, Chrome, Google search. Never going back. #vivaldi #proton #quant #boycottusa #BuyEuropeanTech #buyeuropean

Idag har jag dragit mitt strå i stacken och migrerat två domäner från amerikanska Namecheap till franska Gandi. Next upp blir tre domäner från AWS. #buyeuropeantech #buyeuropean
