protonmail is good for starters

https://www.berliner-zeitung.de/mensch-metropole/video-und-telefonueberwachung-online-durchsuchung-berlin-verschaerft-das-polizeigesetz-li.2335323

tl;dr berlin police wants to steal your crypto, legally. also films your little children without asking

https://www.berliner-zeitung.de/politik-gesellschaft/rentner-nannte-robert-habeck-schwachkopf-nun-wurde-er-wegen-anderer-faelle-verurteilt-li.2334526

tl;dr an old german man posted an insult towards a german politician and now he might have to pay 825 teuros

https://gigazine.net/gsc_news/en/20241129-youtube-dl-hosting-provider-uberspace/

tl;dr programming within the EU makes you responsible for everything any users might potentially do. don't start, leave

I would rather use chink or russian services, eu ones are just too willing to work with police/lawyers even for minor stuff and they're bad in general.

No, it's legit concern and you should know about it before choosing to use EU based services.

Can someone explain why no EU company can create a normiebook alternative? They always create something weird like Mastadon which is completely normie-incompatible

>>105660258
wages are low in IT in Europe everyone that is worth something jeets off to US.

>>105660223
Nigger these things have nothing to do with technology go back to your containment board

>>105660258
SchuelerVZ and StudiVZ existed, but the facebook feed was better

>>105660287
They are literally related to this thread, read the OP and stop posting off topic board links. This is about doing software in the EU, we are in the EU and talking about what to do, fatty. Leave the thread if you hate it.

>>105660258
Network effect. We actually used to have pretty large social networks in Europe before Facebook was a thing.

>>105660280
But why can’t any EU schizo dropout just create a normie-friendly normiebook alternative in his basement?

>>105660287
They absolutely do, also I'm not the one that posted that.
You kinda glow tho.

You are the biggest faggot on the entire continent of Europe right now then

>nothing happens

Why don't the EU shill njalla as well? They're european :^3

is this where we post about gay buttsex and prepping the BVLL for our """"wives""""?????????

>>105659677 (OP)
Europe doesn't have a technology sector because of it's censorious regime and millions of overbearing rules and taxes created by degenerate control freaks.
