It is a screenshot of the filter option that allows to select both "European" and "open source" for people like who want both.
After comparing several of these directories, seems https://euro-stack.com/ is the most comprehensive. I also like that it allows to filter by both being European and open source.
It is also made by the same people who run https://eurostack.eu/ and who got a lot of visibility delivering the https://euro-stackletter.eu/ letter to President Von der Leyen a year ago. Hopefully they settle soon on what is their primary domain :)

Univeristy student keen to gain open source skills this summer? If you, or someone you know, want to contribute to Debian with Google's sponsorship, explore the GSoC 2026 project ideas now: https://wiki.debian.org/SummerOfCode2026/Projects
Applications open until end of March - look into project ideas already this weekend!
I wouldn't be surprised to see multiple MySQL forks emerge in 2026, now that more people are realizing how bad Oracle has been as an open source project steward for MySQL.
There was a bunch of luck involved that Andres Freund detected this. Give more time, it would have ended up in stable releases eventually if not detected.
TLS is good *only' if you are also validating those certs. And that is what MariaDB 11.8 is now doing.
Seems there are also https://www.opensourcealternative.to/, https://euroalternative.co/ and https://european-alternatives.eu/
I am asking for general strategies, not for a solution to a specific case.
By UV 3000 you probably don't mean the ultraviolet lamp that is the first page of Google is full of when searching with this term..? I doubt UV - whatever it is - is a common approach.
What do you mean a default user? You can just run 'mariadb' to access to console with the same user that had permissions to run 'apt install'.
For your actual application you need to plan what database name to use, what user, what permissions it needs, potentially remote connection and TLS etc. This indeed is some work and could perhaps be automated a bit, but it also needs sysadmin to make some decisions.
I just prefix all my git aliases with g-. So for status I type g-s<tab>.
You need bisect only as a last resort. Effective use of git blame, git log -p -S <keyword> etc has always been enough for me. Also, the projects I work with take 10+ minutes to compile even when cached, so doing tens of builds to bisect is much slower than just hunting for strings in git commits and code.
I had the same feeling until I started using gitk. I always have a gitk window open and press F5 to reload, so it shows me the state of everything after I've run git commands. Now I grasp everything much better.
Is Linux from Finland or from the USA? If someting is open source and has a global contributor base and no single entity can subvert it, then I don't really think the country matters. But it there is one entity that controls it, then it matters where it is from and what jurisdiction and what policies apply on it.
