I have been wondering recently what European services I should be checking out :)

    My friend uses zoner.cz for editing photos. The license is like 50€ and at least for us (we use it for editing photos for children group) they don’t care about password sharing.

    The first I can think of (because I’m using them):

    • Filen (E2E) encrypted cloud from Germany. Replaced my other cloud services for a few months now.
    • Codeberg, for git stuff. I’m no dev (I just use it for my own little scripts) so I could not tell how feature-rich it is or if it lacks anything it is but so far it seems to be working great ;)
    • Mullvad VPN, Swedish if I’m not mistaken.
    • Should I also mention LibreOffice? It’s not a European product, but its ‘foundation’ is German-based if I recall correctly.
    • Hetzner a German company for cloud, webhosting and some other stuff I can’t even begin to understand ;)

    That said, I mostly focus on software being Free/Libre. Maybe in the coming years, with the rise shit nationalistic politics that we’re witnessing, I will have to focus on EU-made products and services only—that would be sad.

    LibreOffice, Odoo, Mastodon, Nextcloud and more. Lots of Linux distros and desktops are based in Europe.

    There is a lot of FOSS done in Europe and EU is very proactive with it. CERN is really helping open hardware and KiCAD.
