I buy music on Bandcamp but I didn’t know they where American :/ Whatever I couldn’t find on Bandcamp I bought on 7digital (UK). I found it to be cheaper than Qobuz but I don’t know about which one is more artist-friendly

Edit: Apparently Qobuz is superior when it comes to audio quality but I’m just an average listener

Hi, fellow swiss here! I just recently compiled a list for European alternatives when grocery shopping and you can find some soda suggestions there too (the post). I think in Coop you can find Sinalco and Elmer which do Cola, Fanta and Sprite-like stuff.

Can’t blame you for using Netflix since they have a lot of exclusive content that’s really good. And they do support local filmmaking and recently joined the Blender development fund too which is at least some good news.

To find other alternatives I recommend looking up whatever you want to watch on https://www.justwatch.com/ (or TMDb where JustWatch is integrated) because it shows you where the movie/series is currently streaming within the country you live in. I found new (sometimes local) platforms like this and one of them was even free with a library card.

Also going to the cinema is always an option although it’s not really the same type of activity of course.

I don’t know about IndieWeb but they have an issue open on gitlab for an integration of Activity Pub: https://gitlab.com/open-reviews/mangrove/-/issues/45

I didn’t even consider other second-hand services since the ones I listed are already quite established here. Might make sense for people closer to the border to have an international platform though.

And yes, I got off Google Search a long ago and am happily using Ecosia :D

Yeah it seems like the flag is just there because of the Norwegian formula used. Very misleading

I’m an Infomaniak user and while I’m really happy with the services they provide and will gladly vouch for them, you’re right about their website. Sometimes it feels so jumbled and weirdly organised and some texts in their support documentation feel like they’ve been written by a bad AI.

Thank you I put it into the list :)

Le Petit Marseillais got me too!

Thank you! Do you know of another way to do line breaks in a table?

My bad here’s a link to the official site: https://delta.chat/en/

Just started doing this too and hosting it on our family jellyfin server. Feels so much better

My animation program teaches mostly blender :) But it’s in Europe

Thanks for taking the time to write all this up, it’s very nicely explained! I feel motivated to just start out small like some people here have suggested and then see where to go from there.
