Yeah, its total BS government micromanaging of people's choices.

Incandescents are import-controlled contraband here. I've still gotten a few in, but some Chinese marketplaces have stopped selling them.

I bought some cases. About 1000 lamps for the next years

Novelty bulbs like the above mentioned Edison bulbs are usually exempt

Annoyingly, here in Australia I can only buy "fake" (LED) Edison globes now. No tungsten coils...

Should start a black market... :)

I'll have to check it out.

Bunnings and major supermarkets only carry the fake ones. Even my favourite shady Chinese discount store ran out.

TBF, this may be LED too: 25W doesn't sound like a big novelty incandescent

25W would be an extremely bright LED. LED bulbs are like 5 or 7.
