Promote KDE Gear 21.12: Make ads for apps
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Aim

Grab the attention of people within and without our bubble and encourage them to try out our apps

HOWTO

Pick an app, make an ad. Think outside the box, do original stuff, be daring, think twice before firing up Blender, and stay away from sh**ty elevator music and Incompetech. Also, don't feel constrained by just the new stuff in this release: Make an ad for the app, not (only) the new features

Think of reaching people who have never heard of these things, but my still be interested. Think of the context: if you get it made before 3/12/2021 you can capitalize on Black Friday as a context. If you get it out later, you can capitalise on Christmas/Hannukah/the winter solstice/etc. Although it would be good to get published 2 or 3 ads before the release, I think it is okay if we publish more around or after the event, even running up to the holidays

An ideal number of ads for me would be 5, covering 5 different popular apps.
