It is worth re-watching the review by an experienced genalogy software user (Ed Thompson, aka @ed4becky ) on the YouTube episode :

> [@Featuring GRAMPS Features! Is It Really A Genealogy Program for All?](https://gramps.discourse.group/t/featuring-gramps-features-is-it-really-a-genealogy-program-for-all/1322/1):
>
> GRAMPS on the **[Genealogy Software Showcase](https://gramps.discourse.group/t/featuring-gramps-features-is-it-really-a-genealogy-program-for-all/1322)**

It is less painful to watch at 2x speed. (You’ll spend less time telling the screen: “… no. no! NO! That is the hard way to…” )

Or you can read the [summary posting](https://gramps.discourse.group/t/featuring-gramps-features-is-it-really-a-genealogy-program-for-all/1322/4). It itemizes the major places where he has obvious difficulties. And each item has hotlinks to skip to that section of the Review.
