Hello!
So I created these places:
[1]https://mobilizon.fr/@digital_commons
[2]https://github.com/yugawara/digitalcommons
I hope like-minded people can start to add contents and we can make it
better over a long time!
I can make anyone intested an 'Administrator'.
My hope is that we can put together our collective thoughts and analyze
them.
There are endless possibilities here - we can collect links, develop
software, anything we want!
Regarding 'marketing', that's definitely important - we can share
information and develop strategies here!

If you think abouthow we got to the state we are in today, with
proprietary softwaredominating in certain areas of computing, you have
to remember thatthe reason for that is because of marketing, not
because the productsare better, but because of how people know about
it, and the socialrelationships between people. Just because software
has always beenpromoted a certain way, or that even it is promoted in a
differentway does not mean we have to keep doing it that way.
I keep thinkingabout what you said, how asking questions is a skill
that is honedwith practice, and not everyone has mastered it, and how
it goes overdifferently with different audiences. Then you talk about
all thosenewbie questions and how people just want their stuff to work.
Why should peoplehave to answer endless newbie questions for free all
the time, whycan’t that be a paid job? Why wouldn’t people pay someone
tohold their hand and basically help them through everything?
A lot of thethinking about this kind of thing comes from people in the
technologyspace, people who like to fool around for hours on end to get
thingsto work, rather than just ask someone and have it done in
fiveseconds. We have this fascination with technology and are happy
to,for hours on end, get the search engines to hopefully bring
inrelevant results and then tweak them until it works.
Yet, once you are inthe mindset of a tech person, how can you get into
the mindset ofyour opposite, the marketing person selling memberships,
themulti-level network marketer, a person whose focus is on
people,marketing and selling, not technology?
The thing withmarketing, is it is just as innovative as technology, and
techniquesthat worked to get peoples attention and get them to buy are
alwayschanging, and yet the principles are timeless. You have to get
theproduct in front of an audience and convince people that it is
theproduct for them, or that it is the service for them.
So, with that I havesome questions. What if we improved tech support by
bringing peoplein who speak the customers own language in terms they
can understand? What if we brought people in whose strengths were not
so focused onthe technology piece, but on the human piece, and focused
on the waypeople use technology rather than trying to turn everyone
into a techguru?
I’ve oftenwondered if certain strategies used in marketing focused
businessescould be used for tech support. What if the person selling
thesupport could be responsible for the people they bring in,
forgetting them the help that they want with freedom
respectingsoftware? What if it was not about trying to save money, but
peoplebuying a membership in a community where they feel welcome
andunderstood?
I’m only oneperson, and I certainly don’t have all the answers, and I
don’texpect technology focused people to necessarily wrap their
headsaround the idea that people are literally buying into this idea of
acommunity and not a product or service. But, yet this is
essentiallywhat the free software foundation is, and we need to take
thisconcept and expand it. We need to reach new markets through
peoplewhose primary interest is in marketing and relationships.
I really think thisneeds to be discussed further. I do not think the
issues areunsolvable, but that they will require always going outside
of ourcommunities, but also going outside our own modes of thought
andbecoming our opposites.

In the community I am thinking of, Free Software will be an important

Rather, Free Software will be a natural choice, because the software
requirements of the community will require that kind of licensing as
the bare minimum standard.
But it won't be just married to Free Software, either. The software
licensing is just a part its concern and it will also have discussions
of how to take advantage of proprietary systems.
IPhone maybe a totally locked system but it doesn't stop us from
accessing homepages built with Free Software. Windows is proprietary
but WSL2 makes available a Linux subsystem on top of it.
Gradually transitioning from Proprietary to Free is a perfectly good

That is your personal impression, though it is not objectively true.
Free software movement is really huge, large community. Many large
companies are inside of it, including Google, Redhat, Lenovo,
including Microsoft, and too many users and developers, so it is very
out of proportion to claim how "free software ovement" has "little

Thus one can objectively conclude that large number of largest
companies, users and developers are interested to help beginners to
get along with GNU/Linux systems.
Stating that support for free software " is done on numerous mailing
lists,
forums, IRC" - is not helpful.
I understand that you could not get help, sorry, I cannot know why
exactly, maybe is problem with searching on Internet, or maybe
accessing different ways of getting help.
There are also professionals who will come to your home and help you
with whatever free software. You pay for service, and you get
assistance. If you tell me where you are located, I can definitely
find you people who can come and personally help you with
installations or software. There are those teaching others
computing.
Yes, I can review the list of free software distros and install one
and go looking for support if I need it. But why would I?
Opps, I am reading your emails while answering. So you mean, that
there is nothing for beginners, or you mean there is something for
beginners, and you already found it, but it is not helpful because you
would not install it. That is quite a different issue.
Nobody forces you to install anything. Who said GNU/Linux is for
everybody. You have plenty of choices for computing, it is all your
choice.
I don't see any value in switching from Windows to Linux, other than
an abstract sense of "I would not be supporting Microsoft's
attempted monopoly."
While it is not important for you, many people do understand the
importance of free software.
What is Free Software? - GNU Project - Free Software Foundation
[44]https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.html
And if you do not see the above free software freedoms as important,
feel free to continue with proprietary software. It is your life, your
information, your computer.
There may be some other arguments for free software:
What Is Linux and Why Is It Important?
[45]https://www.makeuseof.com/what-is-linux-why-is-it-important/
Why Use Linux? Here are the Reasons Why You Should
[46]https://itsfoss.com/why-use-linux/
(My adult daughters both use Linux because they were increasingly
annoyed
with Windows' invasive OS. However, I use Windows for work; I don't
have
the option to switch entirely. Several programs I use don't have Linux
versions, and my daughters' experiences with WINE make me leery of
trying.
I can't afford to run into snags that take several hours to fix as I
wade
through various help forums trying to find the one that has an answer
that
actually works.)
That is how it is, life is not a dream.
Ah. It sounds like you have infinite time available to work on software
projects, instead of using software to do things.
But how do you know it?
Did you ever come on idea that reason why developers develop software
is because they are themselves using it to do things?
For example, I am developing my database, but probably 99.9% of time I
spend using the database. The things I do are such as recording
geographic positions, images, field reports into the database, any
kind of information, indexing, then relating it to people, assigning
tasks, projects, sending SMS from computer, initiating phone calls
straight, faster from computer with quick to edit notes. Some of
things I do is about to help Italian investors purchase coffee from
Uganda, Russian people to find their gold mining sites, some
individial businessmen to start their businesses. So I gave you on my
personal example, how the time is available to do things.
"Just search for a list of options, pick one of the three dozen
results, install that one, search for its help forums, figure out
how to join the relevant email lists, and ask for help; make sure to
provide the technical details they require and search for
definitions of the vocabulary used in the responses."
That's fine for a personal project; it utterly fails as a premise for a
school or business switching to a less-popular OS. Again: Why would
they
bother? They have an OS that works.
That such informational resources utterly fail like you say is unknown
to me. But how do you know it?
Free software is not there for reason to be popular, more or less
popular, the reasons I gave you are four freedoms. I do understand
that people are drawn by what is popular, and that there are many
other reasons for choices.

Then if you are only in the US and speak only English, you may not
have access to information in French, Italian, German and other
foreign language speaking resource to understand how much GNU/Linux is
used in schools.

For business I should not tell anything, we know that 56% developers
are using GNU/Linux, those developers work for businesses.
In fact, you are using Gmail service that runs on GNU/Linux. That is
far from Linux-based systems and "utterly" failing in businesses.

I do book publishing. I use InDesign for layout. I use Word to set up
documents with styles that import to InDesign. InDesign doesn't import
LaTeX docs, and a quick check says LaTeX won't save out as .doc.
I did some research into using LaTeX for layout, but could not confirm
that
it had the necessary layout features. Most crucial was having standard
text
lines match position across columns and pages, regardless of any
irregular
formatting included. I remember also hearing about issues with
headers/footers, but the leading match was the key issue that convinced
me
to stop looking at it.
Those are probably funamentally different tools, one is proprietary,
other one LaTeX is free software running on any operating system, one
is visual, other one is text setting software. They are hardly to be
compared. But OK.
What you mention as most crucial reminds me of LaTeX features.
I do not think that for quick visual placement of pictures and text,
one shall use LaTeX. but it is possible, more visual tool is:
Get Scribus – Scribus
[55]https://www.scribus.net/downloads/
in connection with Gimp and Inkscape.
We are in different mind sets, as if you do not find a feature you
need, you grab and stay with proprietary software.
And me, if I do not have a feature that I need, I find it and find
solution and make it happen.
Because there is GIMP, Inkscape, Scribus, TeX and LaTeX, there is
LibreOffice, then me personally really satisfy all my graphics and
desktop publishing related needs.
But my mind set is different, as if I cannot get things done on
GNU/Linux, I get things done on GNU/Linux.
For me, proprietary software is not an option.
Though on mobile phones is almost impossible to avoid it. And we use
such phones in business. But then all proprietary software and Google
applications get blocked, and researchers are sent to field, working
with free software.
Maybe it could work. But I'm not putting dozens of hours into
researching and learning the program to find out it can't. I need
complex and specific layout options, and searching the web has not
turned up info on whether LaTeX or other programs has those
features.
Learning is required.
I can tell you one thing -- back in 1999 I have been accomplishing any
graphics needs with GNU/Linux like I am doing it today 2022. I was
using back in time if I remember well, just XFig software, and I did
make money with it, I have beend disseminating posters and flyers all
over Stuttgart, Germany.
I am not saying "everyone needs Word & similar programs." (Certainly
not
saying "everyone needs InDesign or similar.") I'm saying that I haven't
found open-source software, much less free software, that covers my
professional document needs. That problem carries over for most
businesses
and most schools.
You have not made specific request, maybe you should.
"People should be using markup instead of WYSIWYG" is a fine
philosophical
statement but does absolutely nothing to convince people to use the
software. (Especially when support for markup languages varies greatly
by
device and software.)
I don't think markup and visual tools do the same purpose. Anyway,
make your specific request, there must be way to solve that issue of
margins you said.

A lot of the thinking about this kind of thing comes from people in

get things to work, rather than just ask someone and have it done in
five seconds. We have this fascination with technology and are happy
to, for hours on end, get the search engines to hopefully bring in
relevant results and then tweak them until it works.
Yet, once you are in the mindset of a tech person, how can you get
into
the mindset of your opposite, the marketing person selling

the multi-level network marketer, a person whose focus is on people,

I’ve often wondered if certain strategies used in marketing focused

selling
