How to get rid of Mastercard and Visa? in c/buyeuropean@feddit.uk

It will take a while to replace Visa/MasterCard

For now it's only trying to replace PayPal no?

So what ARE the current "good" VPN services? in c/piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com

Great for use on my phone when I want to use public/airport wifi

If you just want the tunnel encryption you can try hosting a VPN on your own home network. It's what I do since I don't need to spoof my location.

You are asking in the piracy community so I'm assuming you're also using it to torrent (which a home VPN won't help with) but you didn't specifiy so I'm not sure

Poland: Rumcajs (actually Czech but still popular here), Miś uszatek, Pszczółka maja (Maya the bee), Koziołek matołek, Plastuś

If you use a VPN to Poland you can probably watch https://vod.tvp.pl/dla-dzieci (see the "retro kraina" section)

Do You Brush Your Teeth The European Way? in c/buyeuropean@feddit.uk

I once had a problem like this with some jar/paste deodorant I bought at Rossmann (ie not 4starlings), where the expensive t-shirt now has large fatty stains under the armpits that don't wash off.

As for the 4starlings instructions I didn't really realize that was a thing that they said. I always just put pn my tshirt then put the deo on. On white tshirts there may be some light yellow metallic stains, but on colors other than white I didn't notice anything.

Migrate from Bitwarden US region to EU? in c/buyeuropean@feddit.uk

True, I think I'll just put the .kbdx keepass db file into my mailbox.org webdav mount for simplicity if I go with keepass. Though the Android Keepass DX app doesn't play well with accessing kbdx over an Android documentprovider for webdav like davx5 or material files

From a post here I realized Bitwarden (the password manager) is an US company. I also noticed when I login into bitwarden, I login into the bitwarden.com domain.

There now seems to be a bitwarden.eu domain too. Did anybody try to migrate their account from the .com (US) to .eu (EU) region?

Is the process really so weird? Do you really have to create a separate .eu account then migrate your passwords by exporting/importing from account to account manually? And then closing your .com account? This also suppsedly involves cancelling your subscription in the US region and rebuying it in the EU one.

I am aware I can use keepass or vaultwarden and self host rather than paying to the US, I just don't trust the resiliency of my own homelab as I am abroad a lot and can't afford for my passwords to be unavailable. So I'm doing this as a half measure

EDIT: I created a .eu account with the same mail as my .com account, exported an encrypted json from my .com account where I have premium, imported into the new .eu account without a subscription, then wrote to support using https://bitwarden.com/contact/ (sent to billing department) to transfer my subscription. They replied very quickly with an automated e-mail to which I needed to respond "YES MIGRATE MY SUBSCRIPTION - [bunchofnumbers]" and they moved my subscription.

It took like 30 minutes from my initial e-mail to complete the whole process.

It has been a few weeks since we started this, which European email provider have you switched to? in c/buyeuropean@feddit.uk
