Deezer used to be better until they blocked my access because I had to turn off my adblocker; I had a premium account at the time so sure I’ll turn it off (a bit weird that it still asked), but it kept blocking my access…
It started blocking Firefox’s built in tracker blocking… Even for Premium accounts!
I’ll sail the high seas for anything not on Bandcamp at that point, fuck!
Oh yeah, local chocolatiers tend to be the best, although also by far the most expensive.
In general, in Europe it’s easy to avoid foreign products if you buy local (baker’s bread, fisher’s fish, greengrocers’ vegetables, etc.), but also assuming you earn well.
Oh that’s an amazing one, I really should’ve thought of that!
Kwadratisch, praktisch, gut!
The snacks section could use a lot of chocolates but then again as European it’s hard to find American chocolate: Milka, Ferrero Rocher, Lindt, Tony’s Chocolonely, Callier… Just to name a few.
I was surprised to see Toblerone on the American side, apparently they’re under an American company nowadays! TIL
Also, Logitech isn’t Chinese? Huh, TIL as well
Who’s using VLC in 2025? It renders colours in mkvs so badly sometimes! mpv (with SMPlayer as front end) is where it’s at!
Okay but programing or Unix jokes are whole different cake than openly admitting piracy unless you’re Meta.
I feel a lot of appliance brands are missing but for some reason I can’t think of any.
Also, many chocolate brands including Lindt, Tony’s Chocolonely and Ritter Sport (didn’t forget this time!)
