This is misinformation. BlueSky is not a non profit. It is a public benefit company. The shareholders still expect profit.
Pretty ironic that the website that created this, buy-european-made.eu, is actually promoting their Reddit community. They should really switch to an EU-hosted Lemmy instance, and also join Mastodon, just like european-alternatives.eu: @european_alternatives@mastodon.social
Sad Element/Matrix noises q.q
Right! Tedomum.net is hosted in France 🥖
The right hand column for “Drinks” can just be tap water barring a few exceptions water in Europe is clean and safe as well as being delicious in some countries!
7-Eleven is 100% Japanese since 2005
Completely missing are power tools and guns. So please buy Bosch, Festool, Hilti, H&K, Cz., Glock, FN.
Fun fact, Hilti, a Liechtenstein company, has 34000 employees. The country itself has 40000 citizens.
Yes, they produce mostly abroad afaik. Another somewhat known company from Liechtenstein is cable maker Neutrik. If you’ve even been in a pro audio or broadcasting studio or a scientific lab, you probably have used their cables.
Mmm… ditch Garmin, strap a raspberry pi + car battery to your arm, & away you go.

“just ditch apple, get an old rotary phone, tons of cable, top tier camera, and an ibm system 370 and lug them around instead.” Was that your point? That garmin is literally the only one making gpses and watches?
streaming: the right side, most of those are country specific.
Consider buying Solovairs instead of Dr martens. They’re basically the same, the main difference is that they are made in the UK in a factory that used to make Dr martens before they delocalized their production to Asia
When my Solovair became too worn to wear, they sent me replacement soles, like, the whole bottom half of the shoe, and put me in touch with their repair guy to have them put on. Great service through and through, and lovely people!

HERE We Go? Isn’t that owned by microsoft?
It’s a shame it needed someone like Trump to actually get European alternatives more attention. They needed attention way before Trump.
Also the food and drinks alternatives are a bit odd. Many brands on the European side I don’t recognize, probably because they’re pretty local to whoever made this list.
Yep, several Nordic food, drink and snacks brands there. The burgers at Max are good but I doubt they’ll deliver from Malmö Sweden to Portugal.
The list has it’s shortcomings but it’s a good start.
Somehow I don’t use/buy any of these? Like from either side of the chart… I guess I’m doing my part?
From clothing down on the right column, never seen any of these available for sale here in the midwest
They do not sell adidas in the midwest?
+1 for MUBI , it is a streaming service with curated high quality cinema. And they have a very accesible plan . They have a notebook or magazine they deliver every few months that is priceless. I have some volumes. For Cinema lovers obviously .
I wanted to subscribe, I think they had a promotion for 1$ for a few months. I looked into their privacy policy and I was not really happy, data collected for personalized advertising etc.
It was unfortunate, but I would like something to see more niche movies.
You know nowadays how it is.
