Choose European Today So Tomorrow We Don't Have To Choose How To Defend Greenland

@BuyFromEU I never understood why EU do not take more actions to decouple from software dependencies. KDE and Linux is a superb desktop and 2 of the best distros Mageia and Suse are Europeans.
An EU foundation for sharing base system between them can create a formidable competition to Microsoft. Especially now that MS went all in integrating buggy AI and cloud as spyware, and everybody hates it. This open of window of opportunity to take the lead and leave MS in the dust.

When people are in a decent boat, they are difficult to convince to jump to another boat. Because all their friends are in the old boat, it is the boat they know, it is comfortable that they know how it works, even though there are camera in every room, even the bathroom.

It is first when some groups start throwing people aboard, that they begin to think about the new boat. It is strange, it is new, nothing is like they are used to.

It is hard to make people change their habits.

@BuyFromEU or go all the way and choose #decentralized today so you don't have to worry about choosing european, american or any other country-specific centralized thing when governments go on the wrong directions

@BuyFromEU Important to understand that people choose alternative services not because they're European per se, but because they enable freedom and privacy.

@BuyFromEU
Chat control...

@BuyFromEU@mastodon.social Pixelfed is Canadian...
Also Threema is Swiss, which is not part of the European Union.

@BuyFromEU@mastodon.social @SuperDicq@minidisc.tokyo threema tot hought by a Herman investment firm iirc

@BuyFromEU@mastodon.social Also Linux definitely isn't European anymore. Linus Torvalds left Europe behind and is American now, and so is the Linux Foundation.

@BuyFromEU why tuta over posteo?

@BuyFromEU OnlyOffice isn't European. It's from a sanctionned country by way of shell companies.

@BuyFromEU
In any position:
- After all Big Tech corps will be banned in EU, his Politicals will take on your favorities opensource network projects. Wait...
- Majority opensource projects intended for system administrators and programmers with 5-years higher education, ordinary users don't can used self-hosting or Linux terminal
- Most ode to opensource is published by ourselves system admins and programmers, but peoples need simply one-button solutions, and with this nothing not you will do it...

@BuyFromEU
Yours narcissism, opensource lovers and popularizers, very bad it will end, i promise you
You fixated on best code, but you never don't do you think about simply and understandable user experience - and it puts any opensource project on edge of loss and oblivion.
Repent and think about it!
You solutions too much difficult and weak in comparison with achievements from Big Tech! You never don't give mankind similar places on cloud storage, for example!

@BuyFromEU Pixelfed is an eminently chill network.

@BuyFromEU Looks I'm not doing to bad. OK, windows .. because of specific software but no ms office. No google, (I do android though) no X, FB, insta, amazon (because of working conditions of employees)... Whatsapp only on holiday because of accommodation reachability.
Libreoffice from before the US went crazy.
No US airlines, hotels or travel to US.
Only a drop in the ocean but many drops....

@hub @BuyFromEU
true, it should be LibreOffice instead! And some alt-text would be nice..

@BuyFromEU@mastodon.social Linux is - though to its merit open source - American, run by a Finnish Swede living in the US. Also none of any of this answers how military technology will be coded on time to defend Greenland. #EUpol #USpol #lang_en

@nantucketlit @BuyFromEU
it is Canadian

@BuyFromEU though you should also consider dropping the "AI" too, no matter where it's from.

@BuyFromEU wie kann ich kontaktlos (NFC) mit dem Mobiltelefon zahlen ohne PayPal nutzen zu müssen?

@CutePenguin @BuyFromEU Your translation software needs an upgrade. Your condescending comments are gibberish.
