Page is hosted in USA.

1. The are not going to investigate it. Totally legit right?

timeon··on European Alternatives
I was probably not clear in my original comment. My point, in context of this thread, was that it is hosted in US-based company. So things like Cloud Act still apply.

> 1 bad politician elected by a fraction of the population is enough to turn the world against us. Why bother with such altruism when a single election can turn everyone against us?

I get your pain but are you expecting other countries just to take hit?

Should EU lift sanctions with Russia as well? You know "1 bad politician elected by a fraction of the population".

How did you end up with Edge on MacOS? Was it for testing?
timeon··on Ask HN: Have you managed to switch to Bluesky for tech people?
Not issue for me because I'm not into AI/Typescript/web that much. In my case it was easy. Rust people are on Fediverse/Mastodon and Bsky. You don't even need to have account in those places. They are accessible from open internet.

Hardware is still best (in my opinion) but software is not.
