Chapelwaite - I wish it wasn’t canceled after just one season. Kinda bummer when you start something and realize it’s gonna end without finishing the story.

We got something similar called ResQ in Finland, works great but I guess it’s available only in very few countries.
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.
That’s not an unbelievable number at all. Russia has a massive population and if you look at the numbers these are peace time numbers for most countries. For example, Finland’s army turns from 25-30k during peace to 900k during the war through our large reserves.
Fiskars from Finland sells red dot award winning steel pans with a 25 year guarantee. As a Finn I’m biased of course :)

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 :)
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.
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.
Already done most of those, whatsapp is the hardest to replace for me from this category.
I’m using proton myself and have still continued to do so after these news. I kinda disagree that the founder is necessarily in any way maga or even a republican support just because he expressed praise for republicans on one particular issue. I think that’s taking it a bit too far, unless I’ve missed something where he clearly endorses Trump or his views more broadly.
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.
