Hi, fellow swiss here! I just recently compiled a list for European alternatives when grocery shopping and you can find some soda suggestions there too (the post). I think in Coop you can find Sinalco and Elmer which do Cola, Fanta and Sprite-like stuff.

4·20 days agoCan’t blame you for using Netflix since they have a lot of exclusive content that’s really good. And they do support local filmmaking and recently joined the Blender development fund too which is at least some good news.
To find other alternatives I recommend looking up whatever you want to watch on https://www.justwatch.com/ (or TMDb where JustWatch is integrated) because it shows you where the movie/series is currently streaming within the country you live in. I found new (sometimes local) platforms like this and one of them was even free with a library card.
Also going to the cinema is always an option although it’s not really the same type of activity of course.

4·30 days agoI didn’t even consider other second-hand services since the ones I listed are already quite established here. Might make sense for people closer to the border to have an international platform though.
And yes, I got off Google Search a long ago and am happily using Ecosia :D

6·30 days agoYeah it seems like the flag is just there because of the Norwegian formula used. Very misleading


I buy music on Bandcamp but I didn’t know they where American :/ Whatever I couldn’t find on Bandcamp I bought on 7digital (UK). I found it to be cheaper than Qobuz but I don’t know about which one is more artist-friendly
Edit: Apparently Qobuz is superior when it comes to audio quality but I’m just an average listener
