Yes, "Buy #European" is trending but it also sucks. A lot.
Hear me out: I understand and also feel the urge for tech #independence, particularly from the US, right now.
But just because something is European doesn't make it good or ethical.
@Tutanota People shouldn't trust you because you're "from Europe" or German or whatever. But because you have an #ethical business model, employ good people, care about your users, respect #humanrights and build free and #opensource software.
You can't do anything without your phone or laptop, and your phone wouldn't run without American companies. But the current American administration is going wild.
We have everything at our disposal to make an international, transparent operating system that respects people's rights, and it wouldn't make a dent in the EU's budget.

So I’ve finally found the motivation to start moving my/Small Technology Foundation’s repositories to @codeberg and, my goodness, is it just a breath of fresh air…
And it’s even the little things like having the site automatically adhere to your dark/light mode settings. Unlike fucking G****b.
