I specified in the post that I live in Italy, so it may depends on which country does someone live in

 

I don’t know if someone already knew, but I didn’t. I ordered a couple of shoes, and when I received the shipping information email, I read the courier name was Amazon shipping. Don’t know if it depends on the country too, I’m from Italy. Anyway, really unfortunate.

And still many Italian people keep saying our government isn’t restricting our freedom

Thanks, I made it

You missed Satispay, it is available in different countries, made in Italy

[–] StrangeMed@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago

It doesn’t. Yesterday I read an Italian newspapers saying the same thing based on a survey targeting Italian people

This. Also we already pay water bills, what’s the point in paying for more water

My country, Italy, is one of the best country when it comes to drinkable tap water distribution and quality, and yet in Europe we are the country with the highest consume of plastic bottle of water. As usual, Italian ignorance and stupidity…

mailbox.org I still have iCloud as second mail, while I tried to exclude Gmail as much a I could, but I cannot delete it entirely yet. Right know about 90% of all the email are on Mailbox.

I’m Italian and I can confirm that our politicians are nothing more than clowns, not only Meloni, but all the people in charge.

Since I’m a more of a tablet user, my daily devices are iPhone and iPad at the moment. I’m using Safari with AdGuard and private relay, but I was thinking of switching to Vivaldi. AFAIK the engine is practically the same and doing so I would also lose private relay and extensions support. I’ve already ditched other Apple apps and switched to EU services on almost everything (also not Apple related) What do you think? What do you use on iOS?

I’ve downloaded Here WeGo maps, but I’ve noticed that the app lacks a review system. Additionally, the detail level for most places is quite poor.

Which Google Maps alternative is your favorite?

Update: Here We go Maps started showing again TripAdvisor reviews. I know TripAdvisor is American, but it's better than not having reviews for me, and the maps are EU.

 

I’ve begun discontinuing many US services in favor of EU ones. However, I’ve noticed that some individuals, instead of simply ceasing to use American products, resorted to illegally downloading everything. While it’s true that the money goes to the US when you pay, it can’t justify disrespecting others’ hard work and effort while still consuming or using their products, and it is also illegal. This is especially true considering that they likely don’t have any direct connection to MAGA. This applies to actors, directors, YouTubers, and many others. We should simply cease using their products without giving them any further consideration.

Edit: adding to the last line, we should give instead more attention to locally and European made creations and products
