How can we help FSF with their "Upgrade From Windows" campaign? (upgradefromwindows.com)

Right now their page https://upgradefromwindows.com just redirects to https://www.fsf.org/windows which has a wall of text and an infographic. Even I, who doesn't have windows and will never reinstall it unless forced, clicked away from the page within 5 seconds. The FSF desperately needs help with marketing and design, plus it would be great to have tooling for brain-dead linux installation (no, find distribution, backup, put linux on a USB-stick, reboot, hit some button to get into the BIOS, select "USB stick", reboot, click through installation, find alternative software, is not brain-dead).

My point was VR has been the next big thing for at least 35 years. Dedicating resources to native support for VR is a waste, a bigger one than fancy animations.

In the past couple years, it's improved radically since the "last 25 years" of that 35 year mark.
