Ecosia and Qwant are currently developing their own index in a joint venture.
Except Porsche did continue to develop military vehicles after WW2. The Leopard 1 was a Porsche design. Porsche dropping out of the military industry was not an effect of post-war politics but a business decision that happened much later.
Not sure if this is a joke, but in case it is not: the relevant part of the post is not the highlighted sentence, but what comes right after that.
1945 was 80 years ago. None of the people working at any german company today were even born when the Holocaust happened. I don't see how that topic is relevant when it comes to buying decisions today. Punish corporations for stuff that they actually can influence today, not for stuff that nobody alive is even responsible for.
All countries associated with the European Broacast Union can participate.
Theoretically yes, but associated members (in contrast to full members) still need to be approved on a case by case basis.
Active members (as opposed to associate members) of the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) are eligible to participate; [...]. Associate member broadcasters may be eligible to compete, dependent on approval by the contest's reference group.[49]

Eurovision is organised by the European Broadcasting Union, which includes basically all countries in the European Broadcasting Area (basically Europe + all of the Mediterranean). Those include Morocco, Tunisia, Egypt, Israel, Armenia, etc. They have always been allowed to participate. Australia is an outlier. They just got a special invitation.
You can sync with notes in your cloud. I guess if you set it up in a cloud folder that is shared between users, then multiple people might be able to share notes. I did not try it though.
I am not familiar with Google Keep Notes, so I do not know how that one works.
Edit: wrote "calendar" instead of "notes" for some unknown reason
I can recommend SilentNotes, an actual European (and open source) simple note taking app.
In Europe, use of mail hauberks continued up through the 14th century, when plate armor began to supplant it. Some knights continued to wear chain hauberks, however, underneath plate armor.[13] It remained in usage until the Renaissance.[10]
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hauberk
Translated from german with DeepL:
Milanese armour was characterised by its round, bulky shape and asymmetrical construction. A full suit of chain mail was also usually worn underneath the Milanese armour. In Germany, the Gothic armour was predominant, as well as later on the cuirass. The Gothic armour was characterised by its slimmer and more delicate construction. In addition, a complete chain mail shirt was rarely worn under the Gothic armour; more often, chain mail pieces were attached to the doublet in such a way that they covered the weak points of the armour.

Here is an example picture of a Milanese Armour: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Giano_II_di_Campofregoso#/media/File:HJRK_A_11_-_Armour_of_Giano_II_di_Campofregoso.jpg
It is supposed to block the blows that go between the plates, not reinforce the plate itself. A lighter alternative that developed later is patches of chainmail only between the plates.
Mail armour is a layer of protective clothing worn most commonly from the 9th to the 13th century, though it would continue to be worn under plate armour until the 15th century.
In the chapter "Late Middle Ages":
In armoured techniques taught in the German school of swordsmanship, the attacker concentrates on these "weak spots", resulting in a fighting style very different from unarmoured sword-fighting. Because of this weakness, most warriors wore a mail shirt (haubergeon or hauberk) beneath their plate armour (or coat-of-plates). Later, full mail shirts were replaced with mail patches, called gussets, which were sewn onto a gambeson or arming jacket.

He also listed uninhabited Australian islands and a US military base on an otherwise uninhabited UK island as separate countries. So I would guess China decided that the country list is basically meaningless.
