  • Tesla sales plunge 40% in Europe as Chinese EV rival BYD's triple

    Jump

  • Yeah sue me I like China and the stuff they produce, I don’t like the USA, their foreign policy or the products they make. It’s not a lot in the great scheme of things but over the last couple of months I’ve spent 10s of thousands of pounds and avoided virtually any of it going to USA linked companies, that gives me great satisfaction. I’ve even managed to quit using Visa and Mastercard. I’m still using an old iPhone but just looking at buying a pinephone running Linux to complete my personal purge.

  • Maybe, but it does feel as someone in the UK that Trump seems more like a new, clear and present danger to our way of life than the Chinese.

  • I haven’t bought anything from a USA company since Trump being his second term. I canceled Amazon prime. I sought out UK and EU suppliers for all my products and services. Installed Linux (German based distro, sorry fedora) closed my social media apart from lemmy and migrated my emails to an EU service. Oh and bought a Chinese made electric Dacia. You can do it, it wasn’t even hard.

  • Protester arrested over ‘Plasticine Action’ T-shirt: ‘How ridiculous is this?’

  • I’m with you but have you considered joining just to fuck things up by being obstructive from the inside?

  • Far-right populists top polls in Germany, France and Britain for the first time

    Jump

  • It isn’t rocket science, people become uneasy when they see or at least perceive there to be an influx of newcomers, they don’t even need necessarily to be from a different race or culture. It’s simply a fact that isn’t going to change any time soon. And more and more people globally are going to be on the move as the climate breakdown and more wars break out. If you don’t want to see populists thriving then you need to put in the leg work to slow the pace of change that people see and reassure them.

  • Trump Team Has Full Meltdown Over CNN Story on ICE-Tracking App

    Jump

  • I don't know, don't Apple have a reasonable track record of pushing back against governments? I personally have even less faith in the security of android based devices or Android phone manufacturers.

  • Signal – an ethical replacement for WhatsApp

    Jump

  • My wishlist is an app which is not linked to a phone number, is multi platform and has a web app. It should be none US and open source. That isn’t too many requirements and yet nothing seems to full fit the bill? Anyway good luck trying to get school parent’s groups to use something other than WhatsApp.

  • Sounds like the perfect time for Canada, Greenland/Denmark and Panama to launch their preemptive strike and ensure regime change and eliminate US WMD.

  • Take a look at Delta chat? I can’t find a fault with it yet..

  • Is anyone else using Delta chat as an alternative? I can’t fault their idea of basing their chat app on the well established email system.

  • Trump launches website for $5m ‘gold card’ granting US residency

    Jump

  • Ha Ha Ha, If they paid me 5 million I might consider visiting the USA but only maybe.

  • Amazon Doubles Prime Video Ads Per Hour

  • Good thing I cancelled prime along with all my subscriptions and accounts with US companies just after Trump was elected.

  • Geologists doubt Earth has the amount of copper needed to develop the entire world

  • Trump Stuns South African President Ramaphosa with 'Genocide' Video in Heated Clash

    Jump

  • I have no comment on the truth or otherwise of the allegations but surely between this and the Zelensky Oval Office meeting only a fool of a world leader would accept an invitation from Trump to the Whitehouse. To go as a guest and be ambushed and treated like that.

  • Fedora Atomic is the bomb

  • thanks, that's comprehensive, I recommend it at least :-)

  • Google’s dominance on search is declining – for the first time ever!

    Jump

  • I wouldn't say dogshit, I would say the results are good enough for most purposes, not great, my priority just as the moment is dumping USA based companies and I thought Ecosia planting trees was a nice touch. Although as someone else pointed out it is still possibly using crawlers from google and bing in the background. I'm still keen to try out other search engines.

  • I stopped using Google at the same time I closed my accounts with Facebook, instagram, Reddit and Amazon. Currently I'm using Ecosia which I think is German. I’m dumping all the US companies I can based on all the Trump crap. It is taking time and effort but I should be able to actually close the Google account soon and I replaced windows with Linux on all but one of my PCs.
