What does this have to do with supporting european made products?

This gives you a very extremely absurdly huge reason to ditch an usian tech and find a safer european alternative.

It works as a perfect example of one of the very real reasons to buy and use European products.

The fascist noose is tightening the world over thanks to proprietary big tech. We have to escape now while we can to open-source alternatives.

Currently the best private (encrypted) and federated Discord alternative is Movim, which I highly recommend people switch to as soon as possible (the Dev is currently working on discord-like channels with rooms).

For a more complete guide to swapping proprietary apps for safe open-source ones, I suggest referring to this post: https://lemmy.cafe/post/18663514
