| Does it? The EU isn't a single country like the US - it's a partnership of 27 separate countries. If one country in the UN adopted some new OS, we wouldn't expect every other country (incl the US) to adopt it too. |

FWIW, I'm not saying that I would expect the EU to do a better job than the Dutch government. Likely quite the opposite. But it's frustrating as passionate European... that these problems aren't tackled on a union level. You'd think that's their job? The EU will never compete if it stays a loose partnership of 27 countries, and if it can't even get France, Germany, and the Netherlands to work on this together instead of running 3 separate projects... | | |
| ▲ | tweetle_beetle 2 hours ago | parent [-] | | This is the equivalent of two competing startups getting an advantage over an enterprise, just at government scale. It's a good thing. Two competing products emerge, they are battle tested, opinions form, reviews are conducted. At that point it's a much better time for a significantly larger organisation to create a more focused realistic plan based on learnings and outcomes. Imagine the analysis paralysis that would set in if the EU tried it from scratch - years of requirements gathering, pilots, reports... |

| NixOS is toxic and we all know it, hence the decision. Just show us the last attempts of govt. structures trying to be nice towards nix. |

| > it says a lot about the EU that every government tries to reinvent the same operating system Yeah what could possibly go wrong |
