Independence from USA on IT has been sorely needed since the 80’s.
For some reason nobody has been able to make it work, not even Russia or China who both have been very motivated for it for decades.

I hope we will finally succeed now that the interest is more global.

How has china not been able to make it work? Or do you mean hardware specifically? Because with Google and Meta stuff banned, among others, I’d say they’ve gotten pretty far

Good.

Even if we don’t manage to do it fully it’s still an exercise worth doing.

I am actually looking to buy a Phone made in Europe. Nothingphone from UK or Fairphone that are Dutch. 😀 need a little more research before i make up my mind.

I’ve switched from iPhone to Fairphone 6 around it’s release and I’m loving it! I barely notice any difference.
