-By balancing the independence of individual designers and the collective power of collaboration, open design enables and promotes the convictions and passions of designers working towards the benefit of society.

There seems to be an extra line break here. See the preview.

-In open-source software, public review and debate lead to better products and services. Open-source development has existed for decades, while open design is not widely known or practiced. Designing for bitcoin products, especially for newcomers in an open design setting, can be disorienting and require adjustments to how they work and collaborate. No longer is work the exclusive product of them or a small, localized team; instead, it becomes part of a public conversation.
+- Ethics
+- Personal responsibility
+- Independence & self-will


I believe "self-will" is when someone is stubborn (meaning they do what they want no matter what anyone says). Do you mean "self-motivation" in that someone is driven on their own?

Agreed. I'm actually not familiar with the term "self-will" but "self-motivation" sounds right.

Changed to self-motivation in 453525b

+## Bitcoin has a spirit of openness

-##  Open design and Bitcoin
+We could argue Bitcoin needs open design to stay true to its mission.


If we think of design as "how it works", then the (technical) design of Bitcoin is already rooted in openness. We just need to make sure the application layer, the layer that people actually interface with, also shares the same values.

@GBKS So what do you recommend, any specific suggestion?

+
+This ethical responsibility encompasses application design. Most people interact with applications instead of the underlying Bitcoin technical protocol. If someone controls access to an application, it won't matter if the protocol is open. It is up to the global community to build principled Bitcoin applications.
+
+Bitcoin is a protocol created to give access to anyone. Access and accessibility go hand in hand. Designing Bitcoin products means working on removing barriers of entry. It means making decisions to create a unique balance of features for ease of use. You should design for a specific audience at the same time as giving the widest access.


You should design for a specific audience at the same time as giving the widest access.

This is a little confusing.

Agreed. I was a little confused as well. @AlexaAker what are you hoping to convey here?

Removed the sentence in 453525b

+### Continuous learning
+
+Read, watch, listen, and test. You can discover great material about Bitcoin and related topics (like finance). You may not find as much material on the design side of bitcoin applications.


Would be cool if we had some starting points, like a YouTube playlist with good design-related videos, or a few podcast episodes to link to.

Do we really have such resources could you provide a specific suggestion with the links, as I'm not really 100% sure what to add here.

Great update. Just left a few comments.

These bullet points (complete sentences) have periods at the end. Other bullet points (also complete sentences) lack periods on the end. We should probably pick one and be consistent.

The page on the live site has this same inconsistency; we could also unify it in a separate PR.

@sbddesign There are no periods at the end here? Are you sure you're referring to this paragraph/line?

I've committed 11 minor suggestions around formatting, grammar, which leaves this PR with structural feedback and questions that @sbddesign and @GBKS proposed. Would be great if we can get concrete suggestions for those so we can commit and move forward faster.

pavlenex · 2021-12-23T14:47:46Z

@sbddesign @GBKS I've addressed your concerns and suggestions in 453525b please take a look. There are two comments which were not clear to me.

Added content Designing Bitcoin Products > Open Design (Issue #484) #588 (comment)
Added content Designing Bitcoin Products > Open Design (Issue #484) #588 (comment)
Please check them and we'll be able to to proceed as soon as you provide clarification/suggestion.

danielnordh · 2022-01-03T09:12:08Z

As there appear to be no more comments/activity, should we merge this PR?
@GBKS

danielnordh

Approving this as outstanding issues do not seem substantial.
Further comments can be addressed in follow-up PRs.
