Contribute to the project by sharing your feedback!
We are currently conducting an anonymous segmentation survey to better understand our user base regarding technology and privacy related services. This will, in turn, allow us to continue to improve the OS and services we offer, as well as help us find more people for whom /e/OS would be a good fit.
The survey is available in English, French, German, Italian and Spanish. If you would like to participate and share about your experience with /e/OS & Murena you can follow the link here. (You and /e/OS)
Your feedback is invaluable to the success of the project!
Sadly I had to back out of the survey, because for the first two questions, there was no answer that matched my experience
1 How did you become an /e/OS user ?
By building /e/OS for a non-supported phone that I aready owned
2 Are you using /e/OS on your main smartphone or a secondary device?
I am currently not using /e/ on either, because the versions of /e/ for my devices are outdated
Adding a response âOtherâ with a comment box, would enable me to answer those questions. The same may be true of further questions, but I cannot get beyond the first page, because I cannot provide accurate answers to the questions on that page ]
Also, the question about what OS one uses at work should have a âNot Applicableâ or other option. (I had to pretend I still work and that I use Linux at the office. )
The questions about being willing to pay extra for services that value privacy / sustainability⌠In my head âhow muchâ does not work in percentageâŚ
Done.
Though I suggest to make more use of the *other option in general, as for
âHow would you rate Murena Cloud?â, because my actual answer would be: âI canât rate it, because I donât use the cloud.â So, I had to give it one star to continue.
âHow proficient are you with technology in general?â I suggest this either, for I am fascinated by good caftwork as well as high tech perfection, but scared by the possibilities bad people gain in this Wild West. So I had to use âPragmaticâ, which is not the truth.
I was only asked IF I was willing to pay extra for services. I with a ânoâ, because I find this rather a complex topic that isnât just black or white.
In general I am willing to pay for (extra) services when a product/service is good and if I can thus count on its further development. Buying a PC or phone e.g. I expect the OS to be included. For good FOSS Iâd sometimes rather pay a little something than donating. The same goes for most PlayStore apps, where I preferably used to choose fee-based apps without ads and tracking.
Another example: Iâm a web developer used to working with Macromedia products, but never ever would I buy overpriced Adobe products or services. I prefer fair prices and vendors allowing users to participate in the development (to some extent).
I fully agree
if your answer was Yes the follow-up question on âhow muchâ is rated in percentage but gives an option to skip that by not giving a specific valueâŚ
I guess if you include that topic in a survey you have to simplify in a somewhat smart way depending on where you are heading to in the survey in general⌠or you end up lost in complexity âŚ
Thank you for the survey!
For me personally it fits, but there were some questions where categories are missing, so that they cannot be answered by all users:
E.g.:
âHow did you become a /e/OS user ?â
other⌠e.g. âsomeone installed eOS for meâ would be possible, too
âYou mentioned you installed /e/OS on a compatible phone you owned, can you please tell us the brand and model?â
I installed it on a smartphone and a tablet, but I could only specify one of them.
âWhat is the operating system on your personal computer ?â
What about Windows 11? (there are also some others (rare) OS)
