Good news for the people wanting to quit the American Big Tech products for European alternatives...

Our governments built something nice and it's open source. For now I'm trying the editor in the sandbox but planning to play around with local setup later :) 

It's rly smooth so far.

New meta:

1) wait for American exceptionalists to innovate
2) copy it but preserve privacy
3) ???
4) profit as a society

In Canada replace step 2 with: copy it but slap a “made in Canada 🍁” sticker on it

You’re right and the comment was tongue-in-cheek.

TBH France has not had the best record of preserving privacy lately

Open source code doesn't mean privacy preserving.

Not specifically this, but just in general. Plenty of open source products that harvest user data.

it is open source. you can just do things with that. 

also don't forget to make cute maple leaf sticker.

Hasn’t this been the game plan for decades? Except that preserve privacy part.
