Can you also add Panoramax as an alternative to Google Street View in the sidebar? It's French, FOSS, and federated.

I recommend Ecosia over DuckDuckGo. DDG is American and uses bing whereas Ecosia is European and although it uses bing, they are developing an independent indexer.

Good idea! Since the moderator of [email protected] went inactive. The sidebar is really good!

Not claiming the sidebar I helped myself to that other site's community lol. But good stuff.

Alternatives from the other site have been posted. Very much open to changes etc.
