Si, personalmente los productos me parece menos relevante (estando bien también) pero los servicios on line creo que roza el tema de seguridad nacional y debería hacerse mucho mas sobre eso, sobre todo a nivel gobiernos que es una vergüenza ver a presidentes europeos criticar a Musk desde su cuenta de Twitter.

Preguntaba por servicios y productos españoles por darle un poco de diferencia con las comunidades dedicadas a nivel europeo y por tratar un poco mas el tema de esta comunidad, no por que crea que deba ser productos o servicios españoles principalmente.

I guess everyone has their own turning point, but Reddit seems to have a new controversy every two weeks, so I suppose things will just keep escalating here.

Personally, I jumped ship during the API controversy, not because it directly affected me, but because ever since I discovered federated networks with Mastodon, I’ve thought it’s the perfect idea (in fact, I had an account on the server that disappeared even before that). I have accounts on all the federated networks, even though I don’t use them much, and I’d love to see them replace the traditional ones.

In any case, welcome

I carry here as a year and a half (before I was in another instance that closed) and I can say that the increase in traffic, participation, comments, vows etc. For a couple of months it is remarkable.

I don't know if it's for Trump pushing Europeans and Candadia outside their products, for Reddit turning its platform into shit full of bots and unpopular standards or a combination of both, but I think that the network and community is doing really good (we even have a community of conservatives, half a year ago something like that would be unthinkable)

Replacing US big-tech with EU big-tech is the stupidest thing we could do. An oligarch is an oligarch no matter where he is and he will try to buy your government as Musk has done with the USA, the only solution is to prevent anyone from having so much money/power

It's not that there are no millionaires, it's that no one has more money than the government that represents the people.

The level of ultra-capitalist dystopia in the USA is incredible

Yes, I guess that is part of the problem, in Spain hoteliers prefer to scam tourists with products of inferior quality compared to what we really eat than to gain fame and repercussion. I don't know if that was your case, or where you were, it varies a lot from one region to another, but I wouldn't be surprised.

I understand the context of Luigi and his censorship on Reddit, but what about the bee movie? I've seen a couple of out-of-context mentions about this and I don't know what the topic is about.

Israel es un estado fundado sobre el sionismo que es una ideología abiertamente fascista, el mismo Einstein lo dejó claro en la carta en la que rechazó ser el primer jefe de estado de ese país. Un estado no puede basar su identidad en la etnia/religión y no ser racista en sus fundamentos, es evidente

How can you put Spain on the same level as Great Britain? Damn Italians don't know how to make anything other than sauce with tomatoes and they think they know how to cook.

I don't think it's a bad plan, but I believe a good first step would be to close all government accounts on Twitter and open them on Mastodon instead. I'm talking about all levels of administration within the EU27. The impact on journalists, the press, reporters, and others would be massive.

I use https://comelibros.club/, which is in Spanish (my mother tongue and in which I read things) but I think https://bookwyrm.social/ works quite well. You can consult other options at https://joinbookwyrm.com/instances/

P.S. Think that it is federated, just like this, so you can follow and comment on things in profiles of other instances

Could someone please give me a reason not to use/promote bookwyrm?? It's fantastic and much better than any alternative I've tried.
