You are guaranteed that that will happen.
More than once I've seen YouTube reviews that completely trashed the
product, to have half a dozen adds for the product being displayed,
during the review.


I can't see Google liking rival products, let alone free ones that
respect user freedom and don't collect data on users.

As the TDF has sponsors, is it possible to:

a) Run our own instance of peertube

c) upload or find another way for sponsors to get a mention so that it


The standard way of doing that, is listing sponsors as part of the

What we need is a few people with proper expertise in this area, I have 
only 'just' moved from making screenshots (which I am far far better at) 
to also including videos.


My home desktop screen is not really big enough for this, as I need to 
make LO virtually full screen in order to display the icons on the far 
right hand side, this leaves less room at the bottom. As I also need to 
display enough of the actual application,  otherwise things get 
squashed, I need to show 2 / 3 paragraphs in some cases.


I also need to keep items on my own desktop for my own use,  I can't 
keep hiding everything it reduces my own workflow for other things.


Hope this helps


Paul

Hello Paul and the other great people seeing this email.

Thanks for your response and thanks also for the video tutorials that you made

I believe in all your ideas, but sometimes we must give up some ideas because 
we, as a community supporting open-source software, are not in a position of 
strength, but rather we are in a position of weakness, in fact, we were 
defeated by other monopolistic companies such as Microsoft and Google.
  But we will never give up our main goals.
So I think we should show the videos on YouTube. To ensure getting the largest 
number of visitors and beneficiaries.
I made a great effort in my country to try to publish LibreOffice, but I 
failed, and most of the responses were from people saying that the software is 
(ugly, difficult, and there are no adequate explanations).
So what do you think about the perfect solution to this problem?
I see commercial companies cooperating with each other even though they are 
competing in the same product, and from this successful principle, we cannot 
stop our cooperation with platforms such as YouTube and be isolated in a world 
that only 1000 people know about so far.

We can also promote the Peertube platform later on YouTube.


Hi

The videos currently take up about 18MB on my hard disk so DO I need to 
upload somewhere such so they can be downloaded and uploaded to Youtube.


I can upload to salsa.debian for example but I am not signing up to yet 
another service for this, just getting too stressful keeping track of 
everything on top of having zero income.


OK I have no problem with this, I was just expressing *serious concerns* 
about inappropriate advertising before the videos.


Regards

Paul

Hi Mohammed

I created these so glad you like them, They are linked to one of my 
personaljournal blogs


https://personaljournal.ca/libreoffice/curriculum

So I am using a mix of text, screenshots and video,  they are silent as 
I am not very good at speaking on them, but that does mean sound can be 
dubbed over in different languages.


Would it, from freedom / privacy perspective be better if videos where 
just on peertube,  as it raises the profile of these free platforms, 
there is also zero advertising, Plus perhaps they are then embedded in

if the videos are embedded then most people may not even notice anyway.

You might wish to take look at:
https://spoken-tutorial.org/keyword-search/?q=libreoffice

Sadly, almost everyone who makes video tutorials concentrates on the
simplistic manual (typewriter) formatting of the Writer module.
Neglecting the other modules and the power of Writer's styles.

I seriously doubt that the video tutorials you propose would make any
real difference in the number of LibreOffice users, because only those
people who are already interested in or using the software would want to
watch those videos.
