Fair enough. Applied to the strategy I suggested, you would help the person
understand that her freedom is at stake. Explain to her that if she uses free
software she can be free. Explain to her that sometimes her freedom will
require a small sacrifice, for example a sacrifice of some convenience.
This approach is very different than, "Try it, you'll like it!". The problem
with "Try it, you'll like it!" is that if they don't like it, they will
regret having tried it and return to proprietary software.
If you say to her, "your freedom is at stake, you would be wise to switch to
free software--for your own benefit, for your freedom." Then, if Trisquel
has some problem some day, her attitude will be, "How can I make this work,
because my freedom is important". Instead of, "I tried this because I
thought it would be better than Windows or MacOS. But I'm having too much
problems, so Windows or MacOS really are better and I'm going back"
