Personally I'd have expected NPS to be more strongly influenced by
someone's experience of using Fedora, rather than outreach and
mindshare efforts. If someone recommends a product, isn't it usually
because they've used it and liked it?
That's an excellent question and the answer is: I don't know. But in our
current draft of the survey, the question _after_ the NPS one asks why the
respondant chose that value.
If measuring outreach and mindshare is the goal, wouldn't more
direct
measures be more effective, like social media metrics, website data,
press coverage and user numbers? Better still would be research
targeted at new users, to find out what drew them to Fedora.
Those are all valuable too. We can definitely also use this platform to run
specific targeted surveys, maybe even with a link at the end of GNOME
initial setup or something like that.
