In peaceful times, people cling to broken systems simply because “that’s how it’s always been done”. Comfort is a prison.
This crisis is a great opportunity to screw Microsoft.
Chaos isn’t a pit. Chaos is a ladder.
Canadians should be agressively lobbying their politicians to embrace Linux and the open source ecosystem. Call your representatives. Write to your city council. Contact your town IT department. Do it now.

There used to be Linode, but I think somebody bought them more recently.
Owned by Akami now for 4 years, I think.
I’ve several small linodes and have been using the platform since 2018 or so. No difference seen so far in the linode plans or features I’m using with Akami, except for more in-depth monitoring available (for a price).
