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.

Who was the public favourite?
Croatia
Only by 14 points in front of Israel though (337 vs 323 points)
Political asside, i dont think Israels song was good enough for that!
Very much agree. It was a fine song but the level it got in the public vote surprised me quite a bit.
From my perspective Croatia was streets ahead as both a song and performance.
