Welcome to YUROP
The Ultimate Eurozone of Culture, Chaos, and Continental Excellence

A glorious gathering place to celebrate (and lovingly roast) the lands, peoples, quirks, and contradictions of Her Most Magnificent Europa. From the fjords to the Med, the steppes to the Atlantic spray, this is a shrine to everything that makes Europe gloriously weird, wonderfully diverse, and occasionally passive-aggressive in 24 languages.

Here we toast:
🇪🇺 The progressive Union of Peace (and paperwork)
🧀 The freest of health care
🍷 The finest of foods
🏳️‍🌈 The liberalest of liberties
🌍 The proud non-members and honorary cousins 💶 And the eternal dance of unity, confusion, and cultural banter.

Post memes, news, satire, linguistic wars, train maps, cursed food photos, Eurovision fever, propaganda and whatever makes you scream “only in YUROP.”

Leave your stereotypes at the border control and enjoy the ride.

Ah, you mean that the ARD Mediathek uses Google Firebase, I guess?

At least, I found this in their privacy policy:

Für das ARD-Konto verwenden wir den Authentifikationsservice Firebase Auth. Dieser Service wird von Google auf Servern außerhalb der EU betrieben und durch die europäischen Standardvertragsklauseln geschützt.

On the plus-side, the ARD Mediathek supports RSS feeds for now, unlike seemingly all the other web portals of our state-funded media.
