That video now has over 50 thousand views, and inspired +me to do my part and give back to the Emacs community, creating what I wish I +had when I started my journey. + +150,000 views later, I still find my YouTube channel one of the most +fulfilling things in my life at the moment (despite the fact that I am very +busy and don't have so much time for videos these days), because it is my way +of giving back and sharing Emacs with a wider community. + +In addition to the technicalities of video production and teaching Emacs, this +talk will also address two crucial topics in our community — a love of Emacs +and desire for its longevity, and spreading Emacs to new users. + +In particular, I will discuss my views on the sharing of information in the +Emacs community — how we do it, what it does for us, and how we can do it +better. + +People often complain about the Emacs learning curve. As we all know, Emacs is +a beast, and those who use and love Emacs spend years tweaking, adjusting, +modifying, and, above all, learning. Because at the end of the day, Emacs is a +personal journey. Everyone has preferences, searching for what makes them most +comfortable, happy, and productive. Still, I believe that we are stronger +together than we are apart. One of the best ways to find out what we like is +by seeing what other people like. What's important is that what other people +like, other people can understand. + +I hope you'll come check out my talk, and that it will inspire you to do one +of the most honorable things one can do: teach and share with others. + +[[!inline pages="internal(2023/info/sharing-after)" raw="yes"]] + +[[!inline pages="internal(2023/info/sharing-nav)" raw="yes"]] + + |
