„Und das [Problem] lag nicht hauptsächlich an dem Standort ihrer Mutterkonzerne, sondern an der teils monopolistischen Marktmacht und Dominanz.“

Das gilt für Tech-Konzerne wie für Machtkonzentration überall, von Lebensmitteln & Agrar über Energie hin zu Pharma & Gesundheit.

Ich bin @annskaja echt dankbar für den Artikel für @netzpolitik_feed über die Wirrungen von #GoEuropean auf Reddit. Durfte ein klein wenig beitragen, lest mal rein.:)

"No country in Europe produces more bicycles than #Portugal."

"Despite its strength in bicycle production, Portugal is not currently known as a bicycle country. According to the current Statista Global Consumer Survey, for example, 74%of Portuguese people say that it is important for them to own a car. According to current data from the OICA, almost every-other Portuguese citizen owns a vehicle."

#UnPlugTrump, #GoEuropean und @european_alternatives werden immer mehr Mainstream:

My DeGoogle Journey is going great so far!

Moving away from Google and big tech has been both fun and surprisingly easy. Here are some of the recent switches I’ve made:

Gmail → Proton Mail
Google Drive → Proton Drive
Chrome → Vivaldi
Google Search → Ecosia
Google Home → Home Assistant
FB Messenger → Signal
ChatGPT → LeChat (Mistral AI)

For streaming, I’m exploring ArteTV alongside other free Scandinavian services.

I’m also looking into Plex as a long-term alternative. Seems like I’ll need a NAS for that—any recommendations?

Do you use Plex? Please share your tips and experiences.

Starting My DeGoogle Journey!

I’ve decided to move away from Big Tech and focus on privacy. I’m currently loving @ProtonMail, Proton VPN, and Proton Drive—their commitment to privacy is outstanding.

I’m also making a conscious effort to use more EU-based software to avoid reliance on Big Tech and US companies.

Anyone else on this journey? What EU-based tools are you using?
