That ghost archive site somehow only archived the paywall. Here is another link https://archive.is/JFLYk and the original page actually worked for me too, at least better that that ghost thing: https://www.thestar.com/news/world/why-this-french-tech-company-wants-to-build-an-internet-that-doesn-t-have-to/article_f996f5f8-bb97-4aa4-8a5b-fce551f14faf.html

Happy to help! :)

Unfortunately the last bulk I bought was from Amazon a year ago but I just checked and Otto has them too. Although don't expect them to be "original" Bundeswehr socks, I have no idea if they have ever been purchased by the German army, and searching for "German army socks" gives you tons of different results. Anyway I found these are very durable, comfortable and dirt cheap, so can recommend them. :)

I've spend a lot on fancy high tech trekking socks for outdoor stuff (like 20€ a pair) before I discovered German army socks that are just as good but sold in bulk for like 2-3€ a pair, very comfortable and stretchy so they fit multiple sizes. They're probably not to your taste but I just checked the company selling them and they also have these more civil looking and advertised as extra wide comfort socks for like 5€ a pair, might be worth a try.

Was that before or after their "digitalization" offensive? Apparently the old CEO was fired after like a hundred years of running the company because he opposed anything technology and apparently didn't even own a computer himself, the new one did very sharp turnaround according to the video.

Haha yeah that's what I thought, but on the other hand Amazon started as a book store, so why not a grocery discounter. 🤷‍♂️

Couple of big companies like banks are already using their services because they're hosted in Germany and Austria and comply with GDPR, I think that's a huge selling point. Question is if they'll go public and make their services available for everyone, not just big businesses.

If you like expensive wool stuff Steinkauz is another German company making outdoor clothes from wool.

Quick search says Thüros and Asamodo are made in Germany, but if you enough garden space and it doesn't need to be mobile I'd recommend just building your own permanent BBQ for super cheap, all you need is some bricks and mortar or even just some rocks for a fire pit and a tripod, it's a fun little project and also way more fun to grill that way. ;)

I don't have a go-to website, I just search "appname patched apk" or something. Although by now I stopped using those apps altogether.

That's one way to see it, but if I came from Reddit looking for an alternative and found that people are just talking about Reddit here I'd see little reason to make the switch. Kinda gives me "jealous ex who can't let go" vibes. Don't know about one or two posts per week, I didn't count but it just feels like a lot more to me.
