🇬🇧 After many discussions, I’ve decided to start including products from the UK in European Alternatives.
The first UK product on European Alternatives is Mojeek — an independent search engine, run by a small team committed to privacy and ethical search.
They are also on Mastodon: @Mojeek@mastodon.social

The newspaper "DerStandard" published an interview with me yesterday about European Alternatives. As this is the newspaper I read every day, I am particularly proud of it and wanted to share it with you. Unfortunately the article is only in German.

Regardless of the outcome of today's election in the USA, the fact that it's so close should be a reminder of our dependence on the US tech companies and legislation. Promote and use European alternatives and if you are from the US go vote! https://european-alternatives.eu #USElection2024

We’ve reached out to everyone who used the chat bubble to let them know this is now the official way to suggest content – and we're already looking at over 300 new product suggestions! 🚀 It’ll take some time to review everything, but this update makes the process way more efficient in the long run. Want to help out with reviewing? 📩 Send us an email at: contact (at) european-alternatives.eu

A quick update: Work on the feature that will make it possible to suggest changes is in full swing, but will still take a while. Until then, I will have to focus on this in the limited time available and unfortunately cannot reply to the vast majority of messages with suggestions.

@katzenberger Sad to hear that, but you do understand that it is visible which products are from the UK and which are from the EU. They have different banners. Also, it's not like a UK service will replace an EU service on the list, it's just additional.

@martin@mas.mgg.com.ng @Mojeek@mastodon.social I don't want to give this post too much attention, but I just want to clarify: We'll never list Russian companies on European Alternatives, and even delist companies that are too closely affiliated with this country.

@heartshadows@toot.community @lil5@social.linux.pizza @Mojeek@mastodon.social European Alternatives is not ONLY an EU website, it never has been. Even though the EU is most prominent on the website and the most important. Since the start we list f.e. also Swiss and Norwegian products as well and nobody ever had a problem with that and they are like the UK products marked as not from the EU on the website. The flag is also not ONLY the EU flag but also the flag of the Council of Europe.

@nihkeys You can look at this category with a UK product listed. It's very visible which are from the UK, and it's not like there is any category on the site that has a lot of products, but I'll think about adding a filter. https://european-alternatives.eu/category/search-engines

@PacoFerri@ecoevo.social @kkarhan@infosec.space @zulip@fosstodon.org Sorry should have been clearer. We'll add it in the "Self-hosted & Open source" section of the list. You can find it if you scroll down on the page.

@chebra@mstdn.io I get your point, and I thought a lot about that before naming the listing Element. The problem is that European Alternatives, in particular the page with Slack Alternatives, is not only for tech people like us; it is also, for example, for a person working in a company deciding on a tool for their team. Those people might have a problem with mainly promoting a protocol, since you can't download or directly use a protocol.

@chebra@mstdn.io But I thought you can use the Elements apps for any matrix server or am I mistaken? Usable clients are basically the main thing most users are looking for. Also it is true that we are only promoting one Matrix client at the moment, but at least back then this was the most usable one, but we can look into it maybe we list another good one.

@lorenhall@universeodon.com Thanks, Element is already listed as an alternative to Slack on the page, but could be further up in the list :)
