For A Better Web

By: Vivaldi Browser
  • Summary

  • I’m Bruce, and I’ve been working for over 20 years to make the web more accessible to people with disabilities and lower-specification devices/ networks, more private and more democratic. In this series, I’ll chat to others from across different communities and industries who, in their own way, are fighting for a better web. I hope you’ll join me in meeting these people, and also join us in our fight.
