Points that can help them change to FOSS:
- Cool new features not available in proprietary alternatives
- Awareness of privacy risks & issues
- Battery life improvements
- Storage size reduction
- Security improvements
Sites that can help them find FOSS alternatives:
- https://www.opensourcealternative.to/
- https://github.com/sindresorhus/awesome
- https://www.privacyguides.org/en/tools/
- https://f-droid.org/en/packages/
In my experience it’s extremely hard to make someone not interested in software to try out new FOSS apps though…
