@thibaultamartin this is one of the issues that many open source projects have had for a long time: they are being started and developed by people who primarily care for the "how", the technical feasibility of an implementation, not so much about the "what" and the "why" of an every day user. Luckily, that has become better for some projects, but it's still a huge divide for others.

 @pjakobs @thibaultamartin ... try "it" out, as if it was a product. The challenge is similar to that @librecast faces. @jens @pjakobs @thibaultamartin @interpeer @LinHead @pjakobs @thibaultamartin @interpeer Which part, "not a straight line"? If so, I'm sorry. @jens @pjakobs @thibaultamartin @interpeer The challenge to bring understanding (not knowledge) and the understanding that they have to invest some work to the people plus sime money so they have the products they need, not the ones the tech-bros make them believe they want. |
@pjakobs @thibaultamartin Speaking of @interpeer specifically, it is a huge challenge. We have to develop the tech, and then also products later on. And whatever funding we may get has to reach all that way into the future.
The way I'm trying to tackle that is to get other sectors interested in the tech, so we may get some special purpose funding. It's not a straight line from here to there, then, but if I can sustain it, it'll be worth it.
But in the meantime folk keep asking when they can...
