Sophie's reviews
Here are my comments / propositions :
Layout :

  • [x] OK / I removed the 3 minutes video in the header to see what it looks like without as we said we don't want to keep it. [] Let's make one
  • [x] OK / I would rather put the whole title in Bold "Welcome to Ğ1 currency, the world’s first ethical currency!" (maybe mix it with the title in the orange section "Let's Build a parallel economy" but I like that the parallel economy is highlighted too - what do you think?)
    • [x] Let's build a parallel Economy with G1 currency! on everypage. Welcome to G1
  • [x] OK/ We can remove the 3 first pictures (when we talk about the bitcoin, centralized systems...) and put this as a text together otherwise it feels a little weird to see a text talking about bitcoin or centralized system and have to look further to see how the sentence is related to G1. and maybe we could have the future video on the left of that text/paragraph ?
    • [x] OK + popup on words (debt, blockchain...)
  • [x] OK / I am not a big fan of parenthesis and as it make my eyes stumble. Maybe we could find a more flowy way of writting the sentence : "Libre or Free as in Freedom, Ğ1 currency drives sustainability & creation of value for all", same in the intro paragraph ? - [x] put a pop up "free" with "think Freedom!" and on on Libre Currency with small definition + button anchored in the page. Remove brakets. - [x] OK/ I would remove the **Learn More link just below the orange box ** as it leads nowhere for now. big button below the 7 arguments to the basics page - [] We could remove the pictures in front of the 7 themes as we could find someone to make some better designs for us. Also I tested another layout, I added a paragraph below the 7 points to show you what it would look like as blog posts (I can't choos the text color but it is more similar and aligned between each paragraph). - [] I think it would be best to not have** bold / underlining as it makes it harder to read**. Just my opinion, Idk what you prefer or Colm ? **i agree. definitely don't think need bold, underline and italic, in the economic** - [x] Link the Debt in the second paragraph to the basics Content : - [x] OK/ I don't know about mentioning Stephane Laborde all at first as G1 is not supposed to be personified and here we put him first. But I love the rest of the sentence. => [x] Put a small page with "based on ... " and link to relative theory of money - [x] OK/Sentence in the orange box "Free (libre) as in "freedom", Ğ1 currency drives sustainability & creation of value for all" : we could put something that introduces the 7 paragraphs so that we could use the same way to entitle these paragraphs ? Like "why an other currency ?" or "why a new currency ?" or "How different is G1 currency from other currencies ?" or "Why is G1 currency so awesome?" and then the answers would be each of the 7 paragraphs starting with the same phrase construction (a subject and verb of what the G1 is - cf below). - I like the 4 themes they show on the French homepage https://monnaie-libre.fr/ : - Environment : why is it environmental friendly - Democratie : why is it more democratic than other currencies - Crypto monnaies : why is it more fair than other cryptocurrencies - Local currencies : why is it different/better than local currencies because that's some of the first questions people ask depending where they are coming from. I can see that in your 7 points that maybe we could express these ideas : * [x] Decentralize - Share power and responsability -> The power structure is democratic and decentralized (2) (I am not sure if it is a good idea to use the **word Democratic as it is a screwed reference these days.**..) * [x] Create an economy where everyone takes part -> It's fair for Future Generations (6) I would echange the text that is on the intro page vs the pop up page "Each generation creates the money it uses without impacting future generations. The young are no longer disadvantaged in wealth creation." because it is less technical and easy to understand for those who come on the intro page. * [x] Co-create G1 currency every day -> Money is co-created by people, not by debt (3) I would put "called the "universal dividend" or "UDjust in the first sentence of that paragraph so we can remove the sentence "This small daily amount is called the "universal dividend" or "UD"."
[x] Increase your freedom -> Freedom is at the heart of it (1) -> I added the Link to the definition (yet to be written) of Libre in the Glossary. I would put your text in the pop up page and write a phrase on the intro page that would sum it up and then we could develop the links to the other stuffs in the pop up : "G1 Currency is a Libre Currency, Libre being the French word for "free", as in "freedom" (not as in "free beer" 🤣...do we want emojis?). Indeed, G1 currency is based on a monetary policy which has 4 monetary freedoms at its core and its blockchain has been built by developers from the FLOSS (Free Libre Open Source Software) movement." [x] More monetary stability -> The blockchain is environment friendly / A sustainable blockchain (4) This title is a little far from your content though. I get that you want to share that we can't speculate, but that maybe something we could put in the pop up of "Money is co-created by people not by debt" (3) - what do you think ? And then here, we could mention the eco-friendly aspect of G1 ? or put the text with local economy ?
[x] Build a local Economy -> Local and parallel economies thrive (5) (we should be careful with that as on the website they say that Monnaie libre is not necessary local but could be...) I like that you talk about value in the pop up text and I wonder if that is something we should highlight on the intro page ? [x] Get Creative! => People can be creative and thrive (7) (Maybe we can explain it more in the pop up as we talk about the work that can be "compensated", as it can be too in the debt economy?)

We could compare what they have written in the French website see if we didn't forget to mention something in these great 7 points (they roughly wrote similar things on their intro page).

I put numbers to offer an other order for these sections - what do you think ?
Maybe 7 is a lot, idk, but it makes sense... Not too sure about the last 2 though ?

  • [x] We need to change the order of the "how it works" section (we did it in the page Getting Started but not in the Intro page) and maybe put some buttons or links to access the good pages ?

  • [x] How do you feel about keeping the map in French (doesn't exist yet in English) ? And the text for the events ? Maybe there are better things to show there than what I wrote long time ago, idk..
