Smartphone Training for Seniors on March 17, 2026 in Hönow/Hoppegarten

This year, I once again have several dates on which I offer free, volunteer-based smartphone coaching for seniors.

March 17 was one of those dates.

Bärbel Maron, well known for her volunteer work in Hoppegarten, organized and led the event.

At the Ortsteilzentrum in Hönow, Hoppegarten, we were able to offer the participants a safe space where they could ask all their questions without hesitation.

For us, supporting the digital participation of older people is important. This time, my focus was on phishing and quishing, with practical examples for the participants.

    OVHcloud + VPS: Still no Ubuntu 25.10, only Ubuntu 25.04

    When setting up a VPS, it is worth checking which images the provider actually offers. At OVHcloud, the newest available Ubuntu version is still 25.04, even though it has already been out of support for a while. I asked them about it.
