In my field of work, it is common to add endnotes such as “avoid printing this mail. Save paper” or “this mail was sent at a time convenient to me. Please respond only during your work hours”.
I wanted to use this to encourage adoption of libre software. But I am not sure if this is a good way to do it.
Here are some options that I was thinking:
- Libre software is sustainable software.
- Make computing sustainable, use libre software.
- Make computing free and safer with libre software.
- The email sender pledges to use libre software where possible. Join the cause and help.
I have put the hyper-link for FSF in the first instance of Libre as an example. I am considering using GNU or other websites based on your suggestions.
What do you think?
That’s an entirely different interaction and is extremely more likely to give you traction, for sure.
