I’m sure there are projects being planned but I’m not aware of anything in specific.
This whole EU migration is still quite recent so people and Companies are using existing European tech, and then later might come up with their own projects.
I’m also onboard doing this and I’ve been doing what I can.
I use Proton mail with custom domain, and Proton pass and basically all Proton apps.
Got a 2nd hand phone where I flashed sailfish OS.
I have my own private cloud using Hetzner VPS and backed up everything from iCloud into my own cloud.
I’m also a software developer and will start soon working on some projects, but still need to come up with a plan.
For now I’m just migrating everything to existing European alternatives.
Any ideas for future projects just share here.
As a rule (at least for me), never never ever accept take home assignments or tasks that either require full control of your pc, or requires you to pull some sketchy repository from GitHub.
That’s one way to get infected with malware and potentially have your data stolen.
If you have to absolutely do this, do it on a VM.
But 99.99999% of the cases, there’s no need to install control software to a pc or having a 3rd party lib installed.
If a recruiting company requires this, then it’s a red flag.
You did well. You’ll find something soon.
Stay strong!
US tech is a big pile of garbage.
All of it is to make you addicted, to track you, to influence you, to collect all sort of intel about you, and then use that against you. And they will serve you ads as the cherry on top.
For me they can all disappear and be gone. There are plenty of activities (internet or otherwise) that can be done without that pile of shit.
I have Proton with custom domain as email service, I have my own encrypted backup in an European VPS, have my own private cloud also in European VPS.
Don’t need US garbage.
I’m test driving Deezer as Spotify alternative.
Looks really promising. You can even import your Spotify playlists and music to Deezer.
