[libreoffice-marketing] LinkedIn page

Hi LibreOffice Marketing Team

This is my first time volunteering for LibreOffice. I started using
computers in high school in 2009, and now I am a software engineer, using R
mainly, and a bit of Python and SQL. I use Ubuntu about 99% of the time,
for example Ubuntu Desktop on my desktop and laptop. I haven't used any MS
Office subscription for two years already. I am quite passionate about
Office being a waste of money, which is what is driving me to help
contribute to the success of LibreOffice. I am intending on starting with
the marketing side first, as my programming languages are high-level.

I see that you have guidelines about going to conferences, but my concern
is about reaching the mass of people who aren't experts on the computer. I
feel that there would be a lot of value in using social media well.
Facebook is getting old (I say this while I actively administrate a few
Facebook groups with over 15 000 members each), but I find LinkedIn
professional and a high-quality social media platform. I see that the
LinkedIn page at
https://www.linkedin.com/company/libreoffice/posts/?feedView=all only has
one post, and I am willing to be added to the team for the LinkedIn page,
so that posts can be created more frequently.

I also think a WhatsApp Channel would be a fantastic way to reach young
people. A WhatsApp Channel scales very well, includes analytics, and is
very easy to use. For clarification, this is the definition of a WhatsApp
Channel: https://faq.whatsapp.com/549900560675125 . I am not talking about
a Community for the public. To give an example of how this can scale, the
World Economic Forum has over two million followers on its WhatsApp Channel:
