Just like with the semi-finals, this is the live thread for the Grand Final of the Eurovision Song Contest 2024.
As there is (to my knowledge), no Lemmy equivalent to https://reddit-stream.com/, the best alternative is refreshing the website about once after each song. This should still be okay for now as this community is relatively small.

Ugh, once again the public's favourite is shoved aside by the jury's favourite. What's the point of voting when the jury gets to decide ~~every time~~ anyway?

Every time?!

I am genuinely sorry if your favourite didn't make it, but that just… happens for most people when there are many songs. My favourite in 2021 was Switzerland, who won the jury vote but didn't win overall. But like yeah, Maneskin won and it's fine, because it's not just about me. Keiino was my favourite in 2019 as well, but yeah, Arcade was also a great song and a winner. And today, Nemo certainly deserved to win.
