    As a Canadian, I’ll support you EU.

    I just hope you’ll support us too!

      We do support Canada!

      We’d love for you to join as the 28th EU state!

      Wait, what do you mean “We are good just the way we are, sorry”? What if we gave you Greenland? (you can have the Suez canal too)

        Is Greenland in the EU, or is it a Danish territory that is explicitly outside the EU?

        The last time Trump was in power I thought we should get much closer to the EU, potentially as a member

        I look at Europe’s worker protections and privacy protections as a model we all should follow.

        Lemmy Explorer is a great tool to see if a community already exists :)

        Would you like to become a moderator?

        Does it make sense to have two identical communities? There are duplicate posts already…

            I’d keep it. People can subscribe to both, and I often find myself looking for goods in EU stores (aka. not UK, sadly) so I don’t have to pay ~30€ handling fee + tax. I know that OSS exists, but it’s rarely apparent whether any given online store uses it.

          I mean the UK isnt part of the EU and there are significant differences in law and trade stuff so its not a clear cut answer.

              Yeah but the community is called buyeuropean not buyEU

                This is true. [email protected] is for whole Europe and not just EU (the community logo is bit misleading atm).

                It’s of course ok to have a more EU specific community but I personally think Lemmy isn’t big enough to have so much fragmentation and incredibly specific communities (yet).

                But we can link to [email protected] from our community if OP decides that there is need for EU specific buy-community. Fediverse is free and both communities share the same goal: support closer economies!

                  If the decision is not yet made: I think us Europeans, whether EU or not, should stick together and focus on c/buyeuropean over c/buyfromeu. For one thing, Ukraine, Moldova, and the Non-EU countries on the Balkans are the most in need. For another thing, Switzerland, Norway, Iceland have serious high-tech goods and services to offer – and breaking the near-monopoly of the US in tech is arguably the most important thing to work toward right now. Similar with the UK, and while it is somewhat iffy with regard to privacy regulations and because of its Special Relationship with the United States, the Starmer government is the most pro-European government the UK has had in years if not decades, which is something we should cherish, especially now that the US have become an antagonist. Not to forget the enormous support the UK has given to Ukraine.

                  The gold stars on a blue background flag is orginally the flag of the Council of Europe of which every country in Europe besides Russia, Belarus and Kosovo are members. That organization is still around today.

News and information from Europe 🇪🇺

(Current banner: La Mancha, Spain. Feel free to post submissions for banner images.)

Rules (2024-08-30)

  1. This is an English-language community. Comments should be in English. Posts can link to non-English news sources when providing a full-text translation in the post description. Automated translations are fine, as long as they don’t overly distort the content.
  2. No links to misinformation or commercial advertising. When you post outdated/historic articles, add the year of publication to the post title. Infographics must include a source and a year of creation; if possible, also provide a link to the source.
  3. Be kind to each other, and argue in good faith. Don’t post direct insults nor disrespectful and condescending comments. Don’t troll nor incite hatred. Don’t look for novel argumentation strategies at Wikipedia’s List of fallacies.
  4. No bigotry, sexism, racism, antisemitism, islamophobia, dehumanization of minorities, or glorification of National Socialism. We follow German law; don’t question the statehood of Israel.
  5. Be the signal, not the noise: Strive to post insightful comments. Add “/s” when you’re being sarcastic (and don’t use it to break rule no. 3).
  6. If you link to paywalled information, please provide also a link to a freely available archived version. Alternatively, try to find a different source.
  7. Light-hearted content, memes, and posts about your European everyday belong in [email protected]. (They’re cool, you should subscribe there too!)
  8. Don’t evade bans. If we notice ban evasion, that will result in a permanent ban for all the accounts we can associate with you.
  9. No posts linking to speculative reporting about ongoing events with unclear backgrounds. Please wait at least 12 hours. (E.g., do not post breathless reporting on an ongoing terror attack.)
  10. Always provide context with posts: Don’t post uncontextualized images or videos, and don’t start discussions without giving some context first.

(This list may get expanded as necessary.)

Posts that link to the following sources will be removed

  • on any topic: Al Mayadeen, brusselssignal:eu, citjourno:com, europesays:com, Breitbart, Daily Caller, Fox, GB News, geo-trends:eu, news-pravda:com, OAN, RT, sociable:co, any AI slop sites (when in doubt please look for a credible imprint/about page), change:org (for privacy reasons)
  • on Middle-East topics: Al Jazeera
  • on Hungary: Euronews

Unless they’re the only sources, please also avoid The Sun, Daily Mail, any “thinktank” type organization, and non-Lemmy social media. Don’t link to Twitter directly, instead use xcancel.com. For Reddit, use old:reddit:com

(Lists may get expanded as necessary.)

Ban lengths, etc.

We will use some leeway to decide whether to remove a comment.

If need be, there are also bans: 3 days for lighter offenses, 7 or 14 days for bigger offenses, and permanent bans for people who don’t show any willingness to participate productively. If we think the ban reason is obvious, we may not specifically write to you.

If you want to protest a removal or ban, feel free to write privately to the primary mod account @[email protected]
