I think this is why I like solarpunk. It enables us to imagine a better world, focused on us instead of the economy or whatever society thinks the most important construct is.

Note: I might just be uneducated on the subject.

When I read about web3 with blockchains, smart contracts and dapps, all sounds very promising. But once you look for any real world applications it is just some obscure things that kind of only exist to support the decentralized system. I guess that makes sense, but are there any actual real world uses for that? Like day-to-day things that make a persons life easier, not harder?

If you struggle to go fully vegan, you might want to try some of these

I love the new community!

I created a website to swap plants, however it currently only works in Switzerland really (due to zipcode locaiton lookup). But I would like to extend it to more countries, at least in Europe. Feel free to have a look at https://pflaenz.li and test/use it for yourself!

It is open source and you can contribute and look at the code on https://git.thisfro.ch/pflaenz.li/pflaenz.li

Also any feedback is very welcome! <3

My current water kettle leaks more by the day. It is mostly stainless steel, but the few plastic parts are corroded and lead to leaking.

Do you have recommendations for fully stainless steel or similar kettles that are basically not able to break?

I was looking at this: https://www.digitec.ch/de/s1/product/xiaomi-wasserkocher-170-l-wasserkocher-23599517

But I don't really trust xiaomi to make quality consumer products

Hi all

I have an electric kettle I use to boil water often. I bought is because it is stainless steel, except for the indicator to see the water level. Of course this plastic part is now leaking...

Does anyone have an idea how to fix it? My idea would be to fill it with silicone, but not sure if that is safe for use with foods

Ich habe ein Projekt gestartet, das den Handel mit Pflanzen vereinfachen soll. Das soll auch völlig unkommerziell sein, und es werden so wenig Daten wie möglich über die Nutzer gesammelt (die Postleitzahl muss nicht angegeben werden, aber sie hilft bei der Suche in der Nähe). Die E-Mail-Adresse wird nur preisgegeben, wenn du jemandem ein Angebot machst. Die andere Person kann dann antworten, wenn sie dies möchte. Funktinoiert zurzeit leider nur in der Schweiz richtig (wegen PLZ).

Funktionen:

• Angebote erstellen
• Angebote suchen und filtern (nach Titel, Postleitzahl/Entfernung)
• Wunschzettel erstellen
• Benutzer per E-Mail kontaktieren
• Kategorien für Angebote
• Deutsche und englische Übersetzungen

Link zum Ausprobieren: https://pflaenz.li/

Das Projekt ist Open-Source: https://git.thisfro.ch/pflaenz.li/pflaenz.li

Vielleicht ist ja jemand an so etwas interessiert :)

Ich freue mich über jede Rückmeldung!
