Denmark once attempted to legislate open source — and Big Tech pushed back.

Two decades later, open-source solutions are running citizen services in municipalities across the country and even powering the tax authority in Greenland.

In this episode, Magenta CEO Morten Kjærsgaard walks us through Denmark’s “first wave” and “second wave” of open-source adoption, and how European companies are working together to build truly sovereign public-sector technology.

Ever been in the middle of writing, selecting text, and then…
➡️ Menu bar.
➡️ Tabs.
➡️ Right-click.
➡️ “Where was that option again?”

With Collabora's on-selection formatting popup, the tools you need show up exactly where you’re working. Select text, and a neat little toolbar pops up right by your cursor — bold, italic, underline, colour, font settings, and more. No menu diving. Just click, format, keep flowing.
