I want to be an independent company so I too can fix my shit like most everyone could when my dad and his dad were around.

Why is there a UK flag emoji? The UK is not part of EU any lonegr.

From his Mastodon page:

Posts auf Deutsch 🇩🇪 and in English 🇬🇧

So he starts each of his post with an emoji showing which language he's posting in. I know there's also a language tag built into Mastodon, but he's chosen to use the emoji

Probably because he's written it in English.

It is really sad that Patrick Breyer will no longer be part of the European Parliament. His work was very important. I can also really recommend the 37C3 video!
