Sweden has devalued the currency massively (over 20% since 2020) - so it makes for cheap foreign investment.

But how would they know? It’s like Blade Runner.

Have used maybe 2 cheques, bought a condo share but a house is a whole other matter. That said I don’t think it’s impossible, the main issue is just stability, if I had a partner who earnt as much then it would still be tough but not impossible.

But you can absolutely own your residence OP - just look for smaller places, in cheaper areas, and jobs that would offer a good salary : cost of living ratio. You’ll probably have to start with a condo in a HOA, etc. but that’s better than renting.

This is incredible, it feels like parts of the USA are so advanced.

Here in Sweden we’re going backwards, they even took out self-scanning at a lot of supermarkets due to theft.

I never switched. Just doesn’t seem worth the hassle.

Loads of broken features and extra work shoved onto the individual compositor / WM developers. I don’t care about security on my own computer, I just want screen sharing and clipboards to work reliably.

That said, I use just one (ultrawide) monitor, so even the benefits aren’t really there at all.
