This is the way! Excited to try it!

Feel free to add to our database but there are already alternatives listed: https://buy-european.net/alternative-to/zoom

Exactly, as it is not a specific search it still instantly shows the European products/companies. If you use the search instead you can also search for the Non-European equivalent you want to see the alternatives for. :) So you could search for “YouTube” and get to the page where the YouTube alternatives are shown. But I mean it doesn’t really matter that much - whatever you prefer.

Maybe we could switch the link to the frontpage instead of the “categories” subpage? We added a ‘Search’ button on the front page as the main ‘entrance’ in order for people to more quickly find what they are looking for. Thanks for all your work for the movement!

Thanks for the feedback! We already have badges identifying same on the website: https://buy-european.net/ Would indeed be a good idea to add them to the infographics too.

Love all the activism!

It might become a valuable resource either by people manually deciding by the listed country if they want to use the company/product or once we implement labels that highlight EU based entities. So if it’s okay for the post to stay in the EU based community, great. If not, understandable too.

We are not “Buy EU”, we are “Buy European”. In the future we might differentiate between different “types” of European commitment (like EU manufacturing, European manufacturing, Outside Europe manufacturing) but right now we include all companies headquartered in Europe. Once we have a sophisticated database we can focus on the details and enriching said data.

Because people snipe domains and then not use it. The only “catchy” domain we found was .net If the .eu owner wants to transfer ownership, we are ready to change it in a heartbeat.

Thanks for the shoutout! We appreciate data contributors submitting new suggestions here: https://buy-european.net/suggest
