Firefox

I explained that here: https://better-tech.eu/web/article/switch-browsers/ In short, this is the only thing where I believe keeping the web open by using Firefox is more important than using a "European" browser like Vivaldi. If everyone uses a Chrome-based browser, we will end up in an IE6-like situation where it will be extremely hard to create a 100% European browser and get any traction.

Why Ubuntu only?

There are more options here: https://better-tech.eu/infra/article/operating-systems/

Cloud

Cloud computing is always going to be a technical subject, but this is also the part where I still have to do a lot of work and add a lot of content. Maybe I need to make separate pages for home users and for companies to make the information more accessible.
