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

I used to be on Outlook. Two weeks ago I made accounts on Proton and Tuta, but didn‘t like the missing IMAP and SMTP on the free plans.

I then also made an account on web.de, but they don‘t support the plus notation for dynamic addresses (myname+service@email.com). So in the end I payed the 12€ for a year of mailbox.org and have been extremely happy with it!

As far as I know, Giropay is being replaced by Wero, which is already supported by some banks in different European countries.

It is so far one if the better PayPal/Visa/MasterCard alternatives I‘ve used, but adoption is still a problem.

This is a real step in the right direction! I would love to see a technologically independent Europe as soon as possible. Collaborative document editing might not sound that exciting in itself, but it‘s a really important building block for future projects.
