Hi everyone,

On Twitter (I mean, "X") someone posted about their school requiring students to use Microsoft Office. Even worse, the school has a quiz for new students where they are asked what software they can use, and LibreOffice is an option, but the "correct" answer is Microsoft Office. Here's the thread:

And for those who don't want to use "X", a screenshot:

So what can we do about this? My idea is a short infographic that we can post in response to such things, pointing out the benefits of FOSS (especially with regards to data privacy) and how it's important for students to have choice in the tools they use, and the value of learning other tools.

Ideas and mockups very welcome :-)
