You're not allowed to build a restaurant in Sweden without making sure it's accessible. Why would the restaurant's website be any different?

My Matrix-channel for this purpose is called "scratchpad" - and I use it for short-lived information I need to be able to access from all devices. Notes that are supposed to live longer and/or be shared with others go into Nextcloud.

Volkswagen is doing really well. No idea why the headline would point out Chinese EVs specifically.
