Europeans: where do you buy electronic components? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

I used to buy them cheap in AliExpress, but since the new european tariff it's ridiculously expensive, you'll pay dozens of times the prize of the product in tariffs.

Amazon and other big general retailers are ridiculously expensive as well.

Local buying is not an option because in my city there is not a single electronics shop.

Buying from small specialized online shops, the best option if it were not for the lack of selection, meaning that to order all you need for a project need to hit several shops and be buried in shipping cost.

What do you hobbyists do since ali is not an option anymore within the EU?
