Calls for boycotting US products spread in northern Europe
-
If you want to be that way: tap water is way better
-
Some people want them. Dont live on just water like me. So better them drinking local things
-
That's my point, I don't live in a Germanic country anymore and Apfelschorle (Rhabarbershorle too) is the only thing I miss
-
I appreciate it thanks! I've been using DDG and fire fox for a while. I'll have to look up this Google takeout. Thanks again for the tips!
-
Awesome I love the visuals!
-
- Protonmail (i know it gets a lot of backfire on lemmy) and tutamail for mail
- Proton drive for google drive
- for travel i use TomoTom Go (amigo is free)
- Duckduckgo and librewolf as browsers
- Qwant and Ecosia as search engines
good luck, and don't flame me for using Proton lol
-
Ooooh. I understood it that you are in a germanic country and miss these things lol
-
I think the point is, go even further and stop. Of course they want it, those who buy it. Once I stopped drinking sugar drinks, they started tasting really bad when I tried them once in a while. Started preferring natural juices instead. Love my juices. Still sugary, but less processed.

Lemmy is more an alternative to reddit. Friendica is the alternative to FB from the fediverse
-
Google take out worked for me to export all my google foto's so i can save them somewhere else!
I was using firefox as well, but moving now towards Librefox, duckduckgo browsers. I also like Vivaldi but not sure how good it is on the privacy meters
-
Won't flame you for using proton. I'm concerned personally because of the CEOs stance, but it's not worse than Google, and is probably at least a bit better
-
I found this an interesting read on it:

This is the time for the Italian MoleCola to shine!
-
Oh yes. I'm a developer and I've stopped using DigitalOcean and switched to Hetzner.
-
Trouble with that in the UK is Coca-cola is the only soft drink really that hasn't bowed to the sugar tax and changed their recipe to be full of artificial sweeteners.
I absolutely can't stand the taste of these sweeteners and some even make me feel kinda of bad after drinking them.
-
soda is disgusting
-
Guess you found a market hole
-
the biggest US exports are its software products. Until the time we have a way to avoid Google, Reddit, Meta, Microsoft, ChatGPT etc, we aren't boycotting anything meaningful.
-
make sure to leave a negative review of the reddit app.

I'm on a now almost full boycott personally but my new Danish employer provides their employees with the newest iPhone (only phone you can choose.. I tried to get another), American laptops, and uses Microsoft for everything including cloud. It's the companies that need to start thinking and adapting. I aaked them "you know that all of our data is held by Trump-led USA, right?" And they just say "yea, but it is what it is".
