As the weekend is coming, a small reminder. If you have in family a senior who is not so good at using smartphone or PC, you can always do something small to help that person to be safer in the internet. How? You can simply help to update system and apps to reduce security risks.

It's not the bulletproof solution, but helps to improve security.

And if you have more free time, you can help a senior to learn how to safely use the device.

Not everyone is tech savvy and some people may have problems with using their devices. Let's take care of them and help them to learn about how to make it safe to use the device, how to safely browser the internet and how to avoid scams like messages asking to click a link.

Because making the Web better for the people is about making the Web better for all people.

Some good news. Estonia is joining countries that are actively looking for alternatives to US tech. https://news.err.ee/1609927169/estonian-state-trialing-it-system-free-from-us-tech-giants

It's 2026, and it's good to use a phone whose OS allows you to delete all unwanted apps and lets you choose which features you want to use and which you don't.

@AnnaLion@piaille.fr @Ullilust@literatur.social I'm glad to hear that. Enjoy it!

You may think it's a small thing. Yes, it's small thing but also a big step to make Internet better and people-first.

Thanks folks for all the support. Good news!

The Council of Europe voted in favor of banning conversion "therapy". Pressure makes sense.

We won!

The European Union should start working on a European Payment Network that would provide Europeans and the rest of the world with an alternative to Mastercard and Visa.

A single common payment system for accepting online and offline payments, accepted in all stores and on all platforms.

Although there are many different payment systems, the problem is that there is no single system that is widely used throughout the EU.

The EU has SEPA. With the European Payment Network, it would have a complete network that would significantly strengthen its sovereignty.

Digital sovereignty is important for every country. That is why we respect and support it.

We are living in a world where organizations compete not just on products and services but on reputation and relationships. One principle stands above all others as the cornerstone of effective communication: consistency.

After working with many companies and organizations, I had plenty of opportunities to witness how consistency in messaging, tone, and delivery can transform an organization’s ability to connect with its audiences, build lasting trust, and achieve strategic objectives. Yet despite its fundamental importance, consistency remains one of the most challenging aspects of communication to master and maintain.

You can make your posts more accessible and inclusive by putting hashtags at the end.

When you place hashtags after the main text of a post, screen‑reader users can hear the core message first without interruption. This simple adjustment ensures that blind and visually‑impaired persons receive the essential information clearly and promptly.

Beyond accessibility, this small practice reflects a genuine commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion.

It's always good to think how the digital content is experienced by everyone, so we can create a more welcoming and inclusive digital space.

As inclusion is an important aspect of communication and communities, let's remember about it. Small thing to do, but improves experience of so many people.
