Every time I post these guides, there is always feedback on things that can improve, or I got wrong. Please do share, as it is the best way for these to evolve!
I appreciate the transparency in this post but I find it odd there are so many American/Canadian options in the change to column.
Why do we hate canada now?
I don’t hate Canada but the sub is buy European… and Canada isn’t in Europe
Not with that attitude.
They’re basically still a british colony
We don’t in fact there are many excellent Canadian options highlighted. And I even had a Canadian version :)
Why? The US is where a lot of technology innovation was directed for a lot of the things being discussed here, so it’s kinda limiting to leave them off. Not every US company is bad.
In the os category, it honestly feels odd that they’re going by the distro location, when every alternative they list is based on Linux, which is just as American as firefox.
You might prefer the standard version then - https://www.purchasewithpurpose.io/.
I agree that the OS section needs a lot of work.
I decided to highlight rather than remove, so people can see how it compares to their US counterparts. It is also partially due to the effort required to maintain another full version. The most significant driver for this is to encourage people to move away from Big Tech, and a secondary driver is to move to EU-based tools.
