Another tech co-op? Yes, but this is a little different. Privacy and security? Sure - though it's not just about your privacy and security, but everyone's (after all, none are free until all are free). There are alternative browsers led by people not friendly to the #LGBTQ+ community, there are sustainable computer companies with ties to hate speech. This isn't about that. This is about promoting alternatives to #BigTech at the intersection of #privacy #security #sustainability and #inclusivity.
RE: https://social.coop/@thepeoplestech/115972665171740828
I've been getting so much interest in this concept! I've even started tasters already. But I've called it The People's Tech not just because the people - and not governments and corporations - should have control over their own tech, but because I want it to be controlled by its workers and even members. I'm a graduate of the School for Social Entrepreneurs but I want to be part of a democratic #NonProfit organisation and that means a #cooperative model. I've facilitated tech workshops for years but finance/accounts is hardly my biggest strength. If you're in #England, have such skills, are passionate about alternatives to #BigTech, and would like to be part of a part-time, remote, #Covid safer, scaleable small tech co-op, let me know! I guess I ought to add #FediHire to this, even though I'm not technically "hiring" anyone! Feel free to boost.

So now that Meet.Coop isn't working (they shut down the @SocialCoop instance and don't seem to be able to bring it back) wondering if anyone knows of another #privacy or #cooperative alternative for video conferences.
#Jitsi is fine and what I'm using now, but I would prefer something with a few more features and customizations.
Edit to add: I also am happy to pay for a service as long as its run by an ethical entity!
Aight so me and two other good folks are starting a tech workers' cooperative. We've got plenty of stuff against us.
None of us have worked in a workers' cooperative or other kind of democratic workplace before.
There are barely a handful workers' coops in Norway. The national umbrella org for coops in Norway is basically dead and doesn't care about workers' coops at all.
Our coop is geographically distributed evenly along Norway, which means our northernmost worker-member would have to drive 24 hours by car or 44 hours by public transport to reach our southernmost worker-member.
We've put in effort to reduce our weaknesses, and we've got things going for us too.
We've met and continue to meet with other workers' coops to learn from them and collaborate. We've got potential clients and pilot projects. We've got hardware. We've got tech and business know-how. We're working on the formal stuff, bylaws and agreements.
It's going great.
Just wanted to let y'all know it can be done.
If you want to do it too, I recommend joining https://matrix.to/#/%23techcoop:autonomic.zone
