I mean, if it’s in Saudi Arabia you know the royal family is in full control, so in this it kind of makes sense

No worries, happens to the best of us! I was also genuinely wondering if I missed another fork by that name

Is there actually a librefox too? I only know of Librewolf which I started using

I saw some guys getting banned because they were happy the far-right anti-democratic politicians in Romania got served by the legal system. Can’t trust any platforms owned by these murican tech bros

Exactly. State-sponsored murder is thumbs up, but hoping someone slaps a megalomaniac, fascist, wanna-take-over-the-world, drug-addicted maniac is way over the line.

I narrowly missed out on a ban for saying that any Nazi deserves to get slapped. Apparently that’s “encouraging violence”

I just got a “strong warning” for saying that Trump should’ve been punished for his crimes and for hoping that Elon happens to fall unto a Ukrainian guy’s fist…

Apparently they don’t condone that, but anything related to MAGA and “libtards” is perfectly fine

I do not have to be a registered nurse to change the Operative System on my phone? Well, that’d be weird!

That’s the idea! Although I also found one other OS that looks cool, but the name escapes me rn.

Have you made the jump?

I’m almost there! Gonna install a new OS on my phone in the weekend, then I’m completely murica free.

Next step: convincing and helping others

Edit: except my payment cards, although I try to use my phone whenever I can (which still uses SWIFT, I guess)

Well, seeing as it’s written in German: Germany’s and Austria’s largest national minorities are Turks. Estimates are tough, but at least 3 million people (probably more like 5 million) in Germany have Turkish ‘migrationshintergrund’ and up to 500 000 people in Austria. Many have been there since the early 1960s, and, although it hasn’t been all smooth sailing, Turkish culture and food has a significant place in both countries. So with that in mind I think this choice makes sense. Mexican food is lovely imo, but Germans don’t have particular ties to the culture, people or food. (Not to mention the fact that whenever there’s “Mexican” food in Europe broadly it’s a watered-down version of tex-mex, which I do still like anyway)

I don’t think any European would consider them “European” tbh, but we need allies and we have shared interests right now. And their food is great!

Virtually no one here likes Erdogan whatsoever, but our interests in relation to Ukraine and weakening USA/Russia aligns in this particular case. Turkey is a large country that actually borders the EU and has the largest non-European diaspora living here; keeping somwhat cood relations makes sense, even if I’d never want to see them join the Union and know we can never fully trust them.

As we lost our biggest ally, trading with another large country with a significant military makes perfect sense. Besides, Turkish food is actually great, especially compared to murican trash
