Thank you very much for your comments! I just added them to the wiki so we won't be forgotten.
What do we want people to do, after they read the leaflet?
Check out FS alternatives and maybe try migrate to them. Maybe it could be a good idea to put links for some most popular projects like LibreOffice, Firefox etc.
I also think it would be beneficial for the audience to be given a few points to start with instead of being cast into a vast amount of options. On the other hand it is quite difficult for FSFE to "recommend" certain programs. I haven't made up my mind about it yet.
I totally understand your concern and that FSFE can't, like you said, "recommend" certain software. Maybe we can point to sites like [Prism break]. I'm not entirely sure it would be a good recommendation, so any other propositions are welcome. I personally don't know any other sites like that.
One option to avoid this dilemma would be to refer to Wikipedia's Free Edu category: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Free_educational_software
What do you think?
I think it will be beneficial to add this link to leaflet. However it doesn't solve above problem as this wiki site list only educational software and IMHO we should address general purpose software as well.
Best, cmd
