    Aaah, that’s a bit of a stretch. It is one Ministry doing the switch, which is nice, but hardly qualifies as “Denmark” or “the Danish government”.

      Also, they replace MS Office with Libreoffice for about 50% of users. It’s also only the Ministry of Digital Affairs, which is the smallest Ministry with only 79 employees. No mention of Linux at all.

      Complete shit article. Talk about one feather becoming five hens.

      The real story is that Denmark is working on digital independence.

        This. You first edge out of MSOffice and o351 dominance and then the ‘need’ to stay on windows becomes null as - see - everyone can work with leeberoffice on either the free or the pricy platform.

        Add in some yum-cron and start showing off the no-boot or short-boot updates.

      Actually this article says that it is only half of the digitalisation ministry that will make the switch

      Likewise, the minister said that they would be switching back to windows if it turns out to be too complicated.
