Most every implementor of #SelfHosting and #DataSovereignty for community groups, is leftie or at least sympathetic.

And the pressing need to be independent from billionaire-owned and right-wing-supporting megaplatforms, should have obvious salience to any leftie organising group.

Yet when we suggest it's worth their effort to own their communication platform, to own their document store, to own their organising platform? They dissemble and whine and resist like the worst stereotype of boomers who want nothing to change.

#FreeSoftware nerds are here for you, leftie groups. We're even cheaper to hire!
