Go European is a Chrome extension designed to help users discover European alternatives to widely used non-European websites. It automatically detects when you're on a site with available European counterparts, notifying you unobtrusively via badge counters and pop-up suggestions. The extension supports all European countries, including both EU and non-EU nations, allowing for country-specific recommendations tailored to your location or preferences.

With a modern, user-friendly interface, Go European offers one-click access to suggested sites and flexible configuration options. Users can disable pop-ups on selected websites or entirely suppress notifications while still seeing badge indicators. Prioritizing user privacy, the extension operates transparently with no tracking or data collection, and is fully open source. Empower your browsing by supporting European services and making informed web choices with Go European.

User reviews

Users find 'Go European' effective and helpful in finding EU-based alternatives, appreciating its purpose and ease of use. However, several users note the annoyance of repetitive pop-ups due to a missing cache feature, and problems with allowlisting and dismissal options. The alternatives offered are mostly French, suggesting a need for broader European coverage. Some wish for a more prominent pop-up interface on desktop and the ability to include smaller, local stores rather than large companies. Overall, the add-on is valued but could benefit from improvements in user experience and diversity of alternatives.

Pros

Effectively replaces websites with European alternatives, fulfilling its purpose.
Provides good options to acknowledge or transition to EU alternatives.
Easy to use and helpful for discovering alternative retailers.
Users appreciate the idea and find it very beneficial.
Encourages support for smaller, local European stores over big companies.

Cons

The add-on lacks a caching system, causing repetitive pop-ups on page reloads, which annoys users.
Allowlisting and 'don't show again for this site' features are not working as expected.
Currently, most of the alternative retailers recommended are French, limiting diversity.
The pop-up could be larger or more visible on desktop devices.
Users desire more customization like adding smaller local stores and avoiding big companies led by billionaires.
