My Thunderbird client can see all the emails from my Outlook account, attachments included. Good luck doing that with the new Outlook

Exactly, the “new” Outlook is just a web wrapper. Nothing more.

Openshot has a long history. It used to be super buggy in the past, I haven’t tried it recently. But at least is not some new kind of AI slop.

Yeah Wero is more of a PayPal replacement than a credit card alternative.

The sad thing is that Italy has a Wero-like app, used especially in the North of the country, called Satispay. But apparently Satispay is not participating in the European Payment Initiative (EPI). And, the saddest things of them all, is that Satispay began as an alternative to credit cards, but now they issue a MasterCard so you can pay in every shop. Wtf the whole point of Satispay was not using American cards!

We should get rid of the dollar as an international currency, and also credit cards from MasterCard/VISA

I hope the UK will rejoin the EU soon. Brexit has been a shit show, and most of the people who voted to leave are dead by now anyway.

Amazon is completely useless now. Most of the things they sell are cheap shit from China with a huge markup.

Just go on AliExpress directly and you’ll find the same exact products for half, or even one third, of the price.

And for all other things, try local online shops. There are price aggregator services that help you find online shops for all the stuff you need.

Amazon is useless and they don’t deserve any money.

+1 for Fossify, the developer is a great guy who forked the old and now ad-riddled Simple Gallery

If they shut their big system down, it’s gone.

Not only that, but if they enshittify (and they do it) there’s nothing you can do. Lemmy, by definition, cannot enshittify.

Oh well. Fuck Reddit, fuck Spez.

Welcome to the fediverse!!! Bring your friends here, let’s have a good time!

Syntax highlighting? In this economy?

I can’t wait to buy a video accelerator and hard disks for cheap again. So I can’t wait for the AI bubble to pop. The only problems is that the whole economy will tank at the same time…

Exactly, they don’t care about users, they just care about money.

Examples? See what they’re doing with Gemini. Even Pro (paying) users will be downgraded to Gemini Flash in less than one month.

Not crash them, but they’ll probably need to make Gmail/Outlook into a paid service in order to cover all the costs.

Google Ads is slowly dying, because people just ask AI instead of searching and navigating websites, and that was Google’s biggest revenue.

It’s so crazy that the US can turn into what they fought against in the last World War in such a short time.

Democracy and rights really must be protected at all times. It takes nothing to lose them.

Me too. I’m still on macOS 15 because I can’t stand the mess they did with Liquid Ass on macOS 26+.

I’ll just move to Linux Mint in a few months…

Yeah, I’ve recently watched Smarter Every Day’s videos on YouTube about completely building a scrubber in the US. It was almost impossible and in the end he had to build a part in Canada.

I think all the problems he highlights in the videos are the same in Europe. We simply don’t have the tools and the knowledge required to manufacture products anymore.

YES! I want it. A way to get Canada closer to Europe… in preparation for them to join Schengen and the EEA

My European mind cannot comprehend how a word can upset people.

I think we’re getting close to a pop.
