People are completely overreacting how much regulation there is in Europe here. There is more regulations against monopolies and USA BigTech is always crying about that and spreading propaganda about that. But starting a startup is way cheaper in Europe you won't need funding like in the USA even.
- tokai 9mo agoHN users has the wildest takes on Europe. Often completely made up, or something specific to one country made out to be true on the whole continent.
- disgruntledphd2 9mo agoIt's pretty funny. Europeans get so angry at US people claiming to have seen "Europe" when they've been in London, Paris and Rome, and yet they (we) do the same thing on lots of other topics. I think it's just human nature, tbh.
- pdabbadabba 9mo agoThen why do you think virtually all of the most successful tech startups are U.S. companies? (Excluding Asia, for the purposes of this discussion.) Is it just Silicon Valley network effects?
