FreedomBox/Improving Adoption

From Wiki

Some ways of improving public adoption of FreedomBox:

  • Make installation easier (appliances, cloud images, install fests etc.)
  • Make using FreedomBox on a day to day basis easier (web app and Android app)
  • Have a few really popular applications available (MediaWiki, Mastodon, Wordpress etc.)
  • Highlight the convenience and utility aspects of FreedomBox along with the privacy and security aspects
  • Make FreedomBox cool and not boring so that we attract younger people
  • Have big public deployments like framasoft/disroot to show off what FreedomBox can do
  • Endorsements by people popular in this space and more conference talks
