Hello,

So far I have been using N26 and Revolut, which allow me to have Spanish IBANs.

Now I would like to open an account with a bank without fees, like OpenBank or BBVA online account. Mostly I plan to use the apps, so they would have to be good.

Do you have any advice and which banks I should absolutely avoid?

Thanks

Hola,

¿Tenéis algún consejo? ¿Y qué bancos debería evitar absolutamente?

Which member state contributed the most to EU GDP? And what does GDP actually mean?

Gross domestic product (GDP) is an indicator used to measure the size and performance of an economy. It provides information on the value of goods and services produced during a given period. Within the EU, GDP was valued at €17.0 trillion in 2023.

In 2023, slightly less than a quarter of the EU's GDP was generated by Germany (24.3%), followed by France (16.5%) and Italy (12.3%), ahead of Spain (8.6%) and the Netherlands (6.1%).

This is your somewhat regularly scheduled Stop Killing Games update.

Stop Killing Games is an European Citizens Initiative aiming to keep games playable even after their developers and publishers have stopped supporting it.

Germany has hit the threshold sometime yesterday evening. France has also started to catch up. They are still below 50% but there growth over the last couple of days has been the biggest. Netherlands and Denmark are still in the low 90s.

The milestone comes on the eve of this years Gamescom in Cologne, Germany which is set to kick off today. SKG is not going to have an official presence there. (I've checked with the organisers) But if you are attending and want to help spread the word I'm happy to share official marketing material, either in the form of flyers or the files for flyers, so you can print your own. They come in both German and English. If you want some, send me a DM.

Most of the fruits and vegetables are Bioland certified, and most of them are from a local farm near Heidelberg. The melon and obviously the bananas are not from Germany.

The Bread is organic whole-grain spelt bread from a local bakery. The grains are probably also local.

The oat milk is from organic locally (Baden-Württemberg) sourced and produced oats.

This Meal is heavily subsidized by the government. Probably about half the price or something similar. (edit: 0,92€/100g for Students, 1,20€/100g for University Employees and 1,94€/100g for Guests)

Also I am very late to the party because I always forget about posting when delicious food is in front of me.

I'm not going to post an update every time a (small) milestone is reached, but i felt this time it was warranted.

Sweden and Poland both passed their respective thresholds. That brings us to 3 out of 7 countries where we need to pass the threshold. We are also past 25% of the one million signatures needed continent-wide.

Thank you to everyone who already signed.
