Europellinore

For everyone who still don’t get it: It’s time to stop being obedient slaves to emperor Donald. Stop buying American. Support European jobs, business, economy. Buy European.

Some of them I wouldn’t include or even use, because they are too eager to continue doing business in russia, thereby paying taxes to the russian state that uses 46% of their budget for their war against Europe.

Evernote, Capacities, Notesnook, Standard Notes (Not all of them fully European)

Don’t know if it’s a useful answer to your question, but might try offering the addition / updating of company locations info as a service to companies. For example check for a bunch of shop brands whether or not most of their shops are on osm, and if they aren’t (or very outdated), you make an offer to add/update. Then there are a few possible outcomes (besides no reaction):

• ‘yes, please help us!’
• ‘oh, we didn’t know OSM exists. Thanks for the tip, but we’ll manage it ourselves’ -> which is also a good outcome for OSM.
• ’why should we do that?’ / ‘no, too expensive’ -> evaluate your offer description or price

Adding a business to Mapy, doesn’t add it to OSM. The other way around it usually does (usually with a lag of a few days to weeks)

Reviews and pictures can be added in Mapy (https://mapy.com/), an OSM based map provider from Czech Republic. Quite useful as an alternative for google maps imho. Has pics, reviews, favourite lists, etc.

For updating / checking shops, companies, etc, the Every Door app is useful too.

Also Go Map!! for map improvements in general.

(All of them OpenStreetMap)

All other non-us maps mentioned here are, afaik, based on openstreetmap. OpenStreetMap itself is a database rather than a useful googlemaps replacement for navigation etcetera. Apps like Mapy and CoMaps are more useful for day-to-day use.

USA’s demand that Europe has to take care of its own defence, was never about Europe having to take care of its own defence.

I recently tried to calculate this for my company. I wouldn't call it negligible, but the impact of all video calls turned out to be much greater than the impact of AI.

Insightful (or probably: depressing) website shows the Dutch dependency on US tech for digital services like mail and websites. zijnwealautonoom.nl (‘are we autonomous yet’). Red button more clearly marks the US part of it.

In the Netherlands, they are mainly used as a means of transport (or rather: racing) for underage teenagers (12-14) in general (and migrants and young people with a lower level of education in particular), as long as they are not yet allowed to ride a moped and therefore happy to use these fatbikes to circumvent the rules for mopeds.

It might well be possible these ‘bikes’ are a gift when buying vapes, or the other way around, don’t know, but somehow they mainly occur in combination with each other.
