       One thing that Europe absolutely needs to do as ASAP as possible is to become independent from the Silicon Valley.

       @emill1984 in the context of the US being able to push political power via their IT corporations like Twitter or AWS.

       @stfn definitely. EU should invest A LOT to break this dependence on US tech. And the best thing is that we already have a lot of alternatives, we „just” need to invest in them.

       @stfn I found it loooong ago, when it was starting. I'm checking it on regular basis, and it's nice that there are more and more services added.I was planning to move from American services I'm still using to one of listed there, but it was always "I'll do it later". And now, this "later" has finally come.

       @djvdq I gave it a quick browse now, and it gave me a lot of inspiration. Some things I am already doing, like moving from Google to Startpage, and using Hetzner for certain workloads.

       @stfn not only that, but SaaS providers need to start providing EU data and service residency as well.
