@show I didn't realise how quickly things could go bad.

Oh well. The #enshitication of some servers was inevitable, I guess. I hope it doesn't make too much extra work watching the shifting sands :-)

@worriernun @EU_Commission sadly no. When we (the UK) left the EU initially the telecom gougers did still voluntarily offer free EU roaming but then they started to opt out to make more money off the rest of us (#enshitication).
Some small secondary providers still do offer free EU roaming, the rest you have to pay for it.
