The Netherlands continues to be my top choice for a place to live if I end up fleeing my country. If they'll have me.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 6 days ago

If they'll have me.

Not with the current political climate I'm afraid. Still hoping for a shift to the left, as our right wing parties just showed they are completely incompetent. Hoping for the best, expecting the worst though.

It's expensive. Don't forget to buy the floor for your apartment.

Edit: I'm serious about the floor. Apartments don't come with flooring included.

Loving Bulgaria. Everybody's doing social networks, meanwhile they're "ooh, a puzzle game!"

[-] [email protected] 34 points 1 week ago

Temu is more like a capitalism network than a social network, but yeah Chad Bulgaria playing tetris instead of giving into consumerism.

So the source page just doesn't exist. But https://mapsinterlude.wordpress.com/ does. When you visit it, this post is easily found, but do they list any of their sources? No. I checked a few sites that list top apps by country and just checked Denmark, because that's where I'm from and temu was #8.

People really use temu? I thought it was all crap.

Edit:

I used it once when I noticed a hammock underquilt - something I'd been looking for (it's basically a thermal layer for your hammock so your butt doesn't freeze at night). For context, these can cost from 50€ to several hundred.

It did all the stupid prize wheel things and offered the typical bs it usually does. However it made me an offer - buy 6 items and the underquilt will be included free. It didn't specify any prices or the typical "cheapest item is free", so I bought 6 of the cheapest things I could find (something like 50 hair ties for 0.50€, a pizza knife for 1€ etc).

I got the underquilt (and some random things) for ~6€ and, surprisingly, it works extremely well, even for quite cold weather!

Never used the app again, though. After the initial offers to get you hooked, the prices are usually worse than buying locally or just using AliExpress.

This is most downloaded not most used, so I'd reckon a lot of people heard about it, downloaded it, used it, realised it was all crap, then deleted it.

[-] [email protected] 13 points 1 week ago

People would rather download the app to figure that out than just visit the website? That's still depressing.

But probably temu was like get 50% off your first order via the app or something like that?

Netherlands it is then.

Only Netherland and Bulgaria can be proud of themselves.

[-] [email protected] 27 points 1 week ago

Nobody can be as proud of themselves (because of this list I mean) as Lithuania: "LT72 is a website intended to prepare Lithuanian residents for emergencies. It allows residents to learn how to be be prepared for an accident, ..."

This can't be correct. No way people use Signal more than Whatsapp in NL. And Temu, this app Google Play tries to spam you with? Why?

[-] [email protected] 29 points 1 week ago

It is the most downloaded app in 2024

I think most Dutchies already had Whatsapp installed prior to 2024.

Is Temu really that much cheaper compared to Aliexpress to be "worth it"?

I’m like “Wildberries and Tetris?” and that’s just tangential to wtf Temu.

Look at us go wheeee.

[-] [email protected] 9 points 1 week ago

99% of people who use Temu are dumb. They don't stop to ask "everything is so cheap, but why?". Because they get blinded by convenience. And i HATE those people.

[-] [email protected] 8 points 1 week ago

pretty sure this is bullshit. have seen some other maps on there too. unconvincing stats with no sources.
