Buy European

Hello,

A few alternatives to Duolingo (which hasn't been that good for a while now)

So here are some tips

• Drops app - Originally from Estonia, now a Kahoot! company which is from Norway. In few minutes a day for unpaid version it builds your vocabulary and you can also search by the topic. They offer wide range of languages. They also support Ukraine.

• Babbel - Most widely known subscription-based app where you learn with language professionals. Origin in Germany.

• Preply - Tutoring platform focused on languages originating in Ukraine. It is like a marketplace where tutors offer their language services and you can book tutor for language you want to learn.

European company and employs a lot of people in Europe

Seems like they donated to Trump's inauguration, do people know how much?

I am pretty sure that Rheinmetall AG is having a downward correction after all that growth, I am waiting to buy the dip

Possibly has a similar mindset to Musk. See report (german)

Does any of you know a good alternative to LinkedIn which is available all over Europe ?

In the past there was a French Alternative called Viadeo but it seems they were bought by another company and now the website is full of adds.

Antoher friendly reminder of why we have to buy European products: tariffs to all agriculture products going to USA from next month. We still don't know the percentage, but anyway, buy European as long as you can!

I have been looking into some stuff and for now the Philips oneblade looks like the most interesting option to me, does someone maybe have experience with it? How long do the blades last? Or are there any other alternatives you would recommend?

I am not the author.

I found this blog to have both a short summary of the reasons as well as a pretty complete overview of the options for protecting against this specific threat model. I can just send this to people and they'll understand the why and the how.

Not sure if this is at the mod or admin level, but that seems a bit concerning

Version 2 of the European app alternatives. Feel free to share it :)

I'm looking for a replacement for Bandcamp (I prefer to buy records, even digitally, I don't like streaming).

Although Bandcamp seem particularly fair to musicians, I already didn't like Tencent owning a part of it (through Epic).

I've already bought albums on Qobuz and 7digital in the past years, but I wonder why I haven't seen mentions of 7digital in the "buy european" initiative.

Qobuz is french and, to my knowledge, 7digital is british. Is there something shady about 7digital I don't know about ? I thought they would be bigger / have more recognition than Qobuz (french inferiority complex). Does the CEO have a boner for Trump ? Or some shady business with Russia ?

I'm finally getting to replacing my ISP-provided Huawei router for, well, something - anything - else. When sifting through options available locally I've noticed Fritzbox 4060, which is not a name ice heard ever before. I didn't find much info about neither the company nor the product (except for marketing info and basic technical specs, which look fine for me). I guess I could've looked up some German sites (and believe the automated translations, cause my German is almost nonexistent) but I'm honestly interested in opinions of the people in this community.

So, what's up with AVM?

EDIT: Thank you for your replies! Seems like I'm going to buy the bullet and buy myself a Fritzbox, then!

They have German and Finnish data centers, as well as American. Pricing is pretty competitive, and unlike anything super autoscalable in AWS, it's predictable.

They offer an email service that comes with their basic webhosting service, which is a bundle that costs less for 100 inboxes than Google Suite or Proton for just one user, if all you need is email.

I absolutely love this classic durable and reliable watch. I've had it for over 10 years and still running and in nice condition.

Any similar European alternatives you know of and can possibly recommend? As far as I know CASIO itself is Japanese, but I was kinda curious if I could support "local" and get an European one.
