Stay Focused on Promoting EU Companies, Not Personal Agendas

The goal of this sub is to promote companies that are based in the EU and pay taxes here. That’s a clear, measurable standard — and it should remain the only one.

Lately, I’ve noticed some EU companies being excluded or downvoted due to perceived moral or political issues — things like executive donations, internal policies, or public stances. For example, some users suggest avoiding Spotify because of a donation made by one of its founders. But that’s not the point of this sub.

Whether a company aligns with someone’s personal ethics should be up to the individual consumer, not enforced by the sub. If we start gatekeeping based on shifting moral standards, the core mission is diluted.

Promote EU alternatives. Let people decide the rest.
