GNOME has too. There it's called nightlight

Budgie might ship with an applet, that enables the functionality as well (not sure, it's been a while, since I last used this DE)

I think you misunderstand the point. Of course we need more technical capabilities in Europe. But we don't need the companies providing said capabilities to have the influence of Meta, Alphabet and co. And influence comes with size. Replacing a US based monopolist with one headquartered in the EU doesn't get rid of the monopoly.

So no, we don't need an European tech-giant. What we need is more in-house know-how and more medium sized companies.

Wouldn't be the first time a conductor was multi track drifting on Londons public transport system.

Erster Eindruck aus Köln: Ganz so viele wie letztes Jahr sind vermutlich nicht da, aber wir sind in einer Ähnlichen Größenordnung anwesend. Die Demo macht sich gerade am Heumarkt auf den Weg und es wird bestimmt noch 15/20 min dauern, bis der letzte Teilnehmende unterwegs ist. Von daher: wenn ihr kommen könnt, kommt ruhig noch.

Reactionaries use meme culture not just because they’re terminally online but also because it makes their behavior seem either benign or just confusing to outsiders. They find it hilarious that they can be really explicit and still fly under the radar. The Alt-Right did this with Pepe the Frog, the OK sign, even the milk glass emoji for a hot minute. The more inexplicable the meme, the better. You get the point where Stephen Miller is flashing Nazi signs from the White House and the [Trump] Presidential re-eletion campaign is releasing 88 ads of exactly 14 words and there’s still a debate about whether the administration is racist. Because journalists aren’t going to get their heads around that. You tell them “1488 is a Nazi number,” it’s gonna seem a lot more plausible that you’re making shit up.

No Plasma Mobile is not just a mobile mode for Plasma, but it's own thing(even if it shares a lot of tech with Plasma). You therefore need to choose a distro that explicitly supports it.

Here is a list: https://plasma-mobile.org/get/

The closest you are going to get to Mint is Debian

For marketplace there is a project in development. It's called Flohmarkt. Not quite ready yet for primetime but worth keeping an eye on

And to quote even more of your link (emphasis by me) :

Your petition allows Parliament, through its Petitions Committee, to conduct an ongoing reality check on the way in which European legislation is implemented and measure the extent to which the European institutions are responding to your concerns.

The problem is that the use of X by politicians is neither a question of legislation nor are the polititians an institution of the EU

I wasn't familiar with you guys before, so in a sense I'm playing catch-up myself ;)

BTW: there was another talk at C3 this year, that might be of interest to you: https://media.ccc.de/v/38c3-transitous-offener-routingdienst-fr-ffentliche-verkehrsmittel (unfortunately it's in German, otherwise I would have posted it properly already.)

It's about https://transitous.org/ I think there is some overlap with what you're doing so maybe there is some room for cross-pollination.

You could ask the folks at @c3voc@chaos.social

If anyone has the complete talk it would be them.
