Since the warm summer months are coming there'll be people needing to buy fans once again and I'm here to suggest the Dutch brand "Duux"

After getting it recommended by a friend I bought myself a Duux Whisper 2. Its really quiet and of great quality + has an app integration.

They also have air cleaners, humidifiers, dehumidifiers, mobile airconditioners and heaters!

We've all already talked about switching away from google/apple maps to something like openstreetmaps, mapy, tomtom amigo, etc. But all of these services use openstreetmaps (UK non-profit) as a source and they still miss a lot of local data even for bigger cities!

If you have some spare time, think about adding a bit of data to the map with your local knowledge. There's a lot of business data missing that is on google maps like websites, phone numbers and opening hours but also stuff like parking lots and whether they're publicly accessible and free or not. Adding these makes the competition of ALL services using OSM as a source better.

I also use the mobile app https://streetcomplete.app/ and https://every-door.app/ to add data while on my walks, these make my walks more engaging and I actually take longer ones + see new places because of it. Streetcomplete also has a focus on important and easy to collect data with their default filters, and you can choose what you want to contribute.

If you really want to get into the thick of it and contribute more than just simple data you can always check out https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/How_to_contribute and see in which of the many ways you can contribute!

Cargo shorts

Does someone have recommendations for cargo shorts? I need new ones for the upcoming summer. Everything I find are shorts without additional pockets and/or they are to short, I like mine at knee length. Thank you!

Hi all! I'm thinking about transfer my account from Gmail to inbox.eu (or Tutamail just for mail). Anyone tried inbox, is it trusted and reliable service? I found them on goeuropean list, so I think they are ok.

Hi, I have mostly degoogled since last year. Now switching to all european. Although there are a few things I am still struggling with. What are you currently using to replace the followings and what is your feedback on it? Feel free to also mention unlisted things which you've been impressed about!

  • Google maps/waze:

=> I use waze while driving mostly for real time alerts such as accidents and police control. What have you found to be the best alternative on this side?

=> I use google maps for going to places by walking or bus, which is not present on Waze. I also use it to see restaurants reviews and so on. Is there any platform with people's feedback?

I have just downloaded Tomtom ami go, osmand and organic map and will be testing testing them out.

  • Drive that syncs with everything automatically

=> Currently on Microsoft one drive. I have a samsung phone and it saves my photos automatically. It also saves all the files on my computer automatically.

Admittedly, on my phone, when I try to go back to old drive pictures, it's a disaster and nothing loads. Any alternative which would allow seamless syncing and work better than this? I might look into moving to Linux later on when i get the time, currently on windows 11.

  • Google find.

=> oh do I dislike Google having my position at all time. I have samsung find too, but it only detects my samsung devices and ignore my earbuds. Any good recommandation of a service with good privacy? Any which would work with motorola smarttag?

  • While I'm here: windows 11 on laptop. Which alternative set up have you chosen and why?

  • Anything which beats the free version of NanoGPT? I already have Lechat, but nanoGPT answers on the free version have been more detailed and accurate.

Ideally, I have a focus on privacy.

Thank you for your help!

At least the [email protected] admin said they would contact the mods of [email protected], hopefully some consolidation can happen: https://europe.pub/post/514

There are some amazing sneaker brands from Europe. Few of them are :

Adidas (Germany), Puma (Germany), VEJA (France), Salomon (France), Diadora (Italy), Karhu (Finland), Gola (United Kingdom), Superga (Italy), Hummel (Denmark), Munich (Spain)

Adidas and puma is obviously my fav but there are many others.

Please share your fav European brand for our sneaker heads :)

This is an older slogan, but in times of boycotting american products it comes with an extra punch.

You also need an API key for the Gemini API. You can get one by creating an account on aistudio.google.com and then creating an API key.

So this is basically a wrapper for Gemini?

I am trying to replace my reliance on youtube.

I use GrayJay and have Youtube, DailyMotion(French) and PeerTube set up as sources.

Unfortunately PeerTube has really bad discoverability or little content, I don't know which.

I subscribe to Gardiner Bryant, VKC, TechLore, PrivacyGuides and a few more.

What channels do you recommend?
