My first company, Opera, was built on word of mouth. The same applies to my 2nd company, @Vivaldi. We have never had the means that Big Tech has. In the case of Vivaldi, we have even avoided investors, to not end up like Opera.

We have also made it harder for our selves. We likely could have generated more funds through adding stuff like Crypto, AI or just plain old data collection in the browser, but we choose not to. We are also not an Ad company like most of our larger competitors. Instead we have added a wealth of features and customization.

Now people are starting to understand that just going with Big Tech may be easy to start with, but ends up not being worth it. In fact we now have governments and companies thinking that they need to move away from Big Tech and quickly.

We welcome you all.

På biblioteket:

"Har du hørt om #DanmarkSkifter? Nå ikke, men det er noget med danskere som forsøger at gøre sig mindre afhængige af amerikansk tech, og jeg vil høre om det er muligt at låne et lokale til et par workshops?"

Bibliotekardame:

"Selvfølgelig! Du går bare ind på hjemmesiden, ned i footeren, og klikker på Booking af lokaler. Hvis M3 er ledigt er der havudsigt og storskærm."

Hold nu kæft bibliotekerne er fede altså! ❤️
