I have Android 12, but no longer get any updates for my phone. Which is a system that desperately needs to change... But good to know that it may become available if I ever get a new phone

Yes, this was the same for me, only the Dutch one

First time I've signed one of these. Most annoying part of the process was that Android apparently no (longer?) has a quick toggle for NFC.

Anyway, I hope this will lead to something. If I understand it correctly one member country can still veto this, right?

People outside the US, do you still consider America a democracy? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.world

One interesting thing I haven't read here yet (haven't read all the comments though) is religion. Sure, officially there's separation of church and state, but Christianity is everywhere in your country, including government. The amount of times I've heard "God bless the United States" being said is ridiculous. To me, that's undemocratic and I would feel very uncomfortable with that as an atheist.
