I want to replace Atlassian's Trello, I am therefore looking for a todo list or simple project planning tool:

  • Supports simple Kanban boards
  • Lists or boards can be shared with friends and family
  • App for Android and Desktop
  • Servers and company located in Europe

Any recommendations?

From Wikipedia:

Digitec Galaxus AG is the biggest online retailer in Switzerland. The company is 70% owned by Migros and operates the Digitec and Galaxus online stores in Switzerland and neighboring EU countries. Galaxus is an online department store with a wide range of products, while Digitec specializes in IT and electronics.

The company displays the historical price development of the last three months in a similar way to the browser plug-in Keepa for Amazon.

Germans do know it and balcony solar systems are booming here. They are small solar systems with 1-2 modules that you simply plug into an outlet. And that's it. You produce up to 800W of electricity, reduce your power bill and they are dirt cheap - german deals pages sometimes have them for under 200€.

They are easy to install (just place them somewhere where the sun is shining and bolt/strap them down so that they are stormproof) and plug them into an outlet. You will pay less for electricity, it helps in the fight against climate change and has the neat effect that you buy less fossil fuels from Russia, the USA, Saudi-Arabia, Katar and other nice countries.

Your local regulations might vary and you might have to discuss this with your landlord. The regulations in Germany are quite relaxed, you basically have a right to use them even in rental properties.

And if you have the space: Think bigger and buy a bigger solar system for your roof. They rock and it's awesome to produce your own electricity.

Normal is a chain of shops from Denmark selling personal care and make up products at good prices. Also cleaning products, snacks and beverages.

Currently have shops in the Nordics (Denmark, Finland, Sweden and Norway), Netherlands, France, Spain and Portugal. Most of the brands are from Denmark but also from Germany, United Kingdom and other countries. Here they have several Spanish brands but I suppose they will have brands from the country the shop is opened.

Found this cool blog post listing European bike brands

Not all(most I assume) are made in Europe, I think Taiwan is one of the most common :(

I know that 100% of batteries are made in China, but I'd like to buy one from an European shop. I need a battery for a pretty old laptop (Lenovo Thinkpad W540) which works fantastically well with Linux.

So, any links are appreciated. Thanks!
