In the past I have run a few zoom meetings to do just that-- demonstrate some stuff- show people how to manually add brushes, that sort of thing. Perhaps someone will step up and also give it a try. There is some usefulness to it.

My last day of school was a couple of days ago- so I will have more free time and will probably off a few zoom meetings covering a few topics sometime in the next 8 weeks
Some users signed in to the meeting and needed some ground Zero info--- Like how to start the program.
Some users needed very specific help-- Like restoring an old faded image--- and things like that take much longer than one zoom meeting. If I were to help that one person with the faded photograph it would end up hogging the zoom meeting.
Some users live in different time zones: I had people from about 5 different time zones in a zoom meeting I had last year- Some users will miss out.
People will need to learn a bit about zoom / Microsoft Teams a bit to not get confused by it: how to chat / raise your hand / understand the waiting room sort of stuff.
I think that people could offer a zoom meeting on just one subject "Install brushes manually" "Using smart brushes" or even "All about your preference file"----offering a zoom type meeting that covers everything would just be a hot mess,, (Like "what do you need need help with)?"
It should begin with people just learning how to be in a zoom / microsoft teams meeting--- how to mute your mic, raise your hand, share a screen sort of stuff.
All this deals with real-time, live help. If you didn't want to to this you would just make a video-- which I hate making.
Zoom meetings should generally be kept small- I find 10-12 people to be pretty good. Any more than that and you spend more time managing people and less time on content.
THE IMAGE BELOW IS A SAMPLE INVITE TO SUCH A "REAL TIME" EVENT. The QR code is a real one, and only takes you right back to the original post in this thread.
I would post this in a facebook group-- when I got to the max number allowed (Lets just call it 12 people) I would simply remove the post.
I've also discovered that people need about a week "lead time"-- let them know about the meeting a week in advance-- and remember: some will "miss out" and will just have to wait till the next go around.
