Buy European

??? Bluesky is an american comany what the hell are they on about

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

Omg, I'm boycotting USA ... since like forever, I'm so sorry, it was totally by accident, thots and players, I hope everyone recovers financially.

Tho the steaming one I do a bit ... differently.

(Also just boycott big corpos as much as possible, no matter the region!!)

I would be cautious to trust an American company just because they are non-profit. We know that if they get sufficiently big they can just transition into being for profit (see OpenAi), chances are regulations regarding this won't become stronger later.

Signal being open source of course helps, but it's usually the ecosystem that people grow to rely on that keeps them in place, not the technology. Just look at how big Reddit is compared to Lemmy for a good example of that. If signal was federal that would be quite different since jumping ship would be easy.

Honestly a lot of this is just good advice in general, even speaking as an American.

Also, oof that General Motors apparently isn't important enough to be worth avoiding (and that ~~Chrysler~~ Stellantis no longer counts as American).

You can add Miele to the appliances list.

Spond?

Spond is The Free Sports Team Management App Chosen by 1000's of Teams Worldwide!

Social media? Sports management is social media????

This works a bit for Canada too.

First time i see this sub on the frontpage.

You should boycott evil corporations regardless of where they are from, don't make it a nationalistic thing, some of the alternative suggested here are as much bad as their usa counterpart. You are not achieving shit by switching from nike to adidas...

L for Proton mention.

CEO is fascist loving boot licker

Edit: company rescinded statement Andy Ten Yen made

Food drink and clothing I was never buying either side anyway.

Recently got some new plain cotton t-shirts though. £2.50 each at Tesco so I got 8. Should just about last me to 2030.

+1 for MUBI , it is a streaming service with curated high quality cinema. And they have a very accesible plan . They have a notebook or magazine they deliver every few months that is priceless. I have some volumes. For Cinema lovers obviously .

Thank you - from (sadly) an American

HMD could be mentioned in electronics, they're Finnish and they make smartphones. The CPUs in some of their phones are from Unisoc who are Chinese; maybe some people would want to know that. In their other phones they use Qualcomm CPUs, and Qualcomm are American.

Also there are more alternatives to American goods/services outside of Europe, e.g. goods/services from places like Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, Australia, Canada, New Zealand.

E.g. South Korean cars (Hyundai and Kia) or Taiwanese electronics (Asus, Acer, MSI).
