Platform co-ops like @ampl3d even take it a step further and add representation for *consumers*, so now everyone involved has a say in the platform.

@zkat__ ("kat marchán") replied to a tweet by @zkat__:

So, for example, one might build a ride share app where the software is built by worker-owners, but is also owned by the drivers themselves.

Everyone invests their time, money, and energy into the project.

And everyone gets a cut out the surplus as needed.

And everyone wins.

@zkat__ ("kat marchán") replied to a tweet by @zkat__:

For those who are not familiar: a worker cooperative (or co-op) is a company that's majority-owned by the workers themselves.

A platform co-op, meanwhile, is kind of a hybrid where the co-op is owned by the workers that build it but also by the *customers* that use it.

They literally just updated it and re-released it to reflect Elliott Page's coming out, so yeah, the UK press is *desperate* for *anything* they can use to make trans people look wildly unreasonable huh.

Did you know that @start_coop is currently accepting applications for their accelerator program? Think YC without the toxicity.

And @TheSELC is an amazing resource for anyone setting up worker co-ops.

There's also some misc. bits about platform co-ops that are more spread out.

We desperately need alternatives to big tech and vc funding.

Co-ops need to be easier to build and fund. We need to get more info out there about how they work. They're really not as inaccessible as you might think.

p.s. reply with "what about blockch*in" for a free block

@rubensborges @Iron_Spike It never ceases to astound me that American Christians have found a way to exalt the figure of Christ while simultaneously believing that poor people deserve to die in the streets because being rich is good
