Should we do something native to the Fediverse?

And what would that actually look like? Let’s be honest about what the #Fediverse is. Despite all the code and standards talk, the heart of the Fediverse is anarchism – not in the chaos sense, but in the older meaning:

The letter A for anarkhia (‘without ruler’), circled by an O that stands for order or organization.

We have plenty of the A with decentralization, voluntary cooperation and resistance to imposed authority. But where’s the O? Of clear coordination, transparent […]

Next up for me at the #CoopCongress today (maybe mute this hashtag now if this isn't your jam 😅) we have:

"What's next for us owning our own tech? Let's talk about #CoTech"

> Hosted by John Robb, musician, author and campaigner; and Natasha Natarajan, Outlandish Co-operative, and Richard Rowley from Agile Collective, who are both part of CoTech – a network of ethical tech, digital and creative co-operatives.

hello! new intro post since it's been a while!

my name is maren and I'm stillgreenmoss on the internet. I live in asheville NC in the US, a beautiful and frustrating place in the Appalachian mountains. most of my work is place-based here in asheville

I recently quit my job to focus on starting @bunkcomputer with two other amazing cooperators

I help @firestorm with sysadmin-ish work -- I'm a friend and not a member of the coop

I'm a trans woman and very glad for it, despite the horrors

computing and its discontents is the dominant public activity in my life, though I do also love techno and breakcore and acid and house music and and and -- do you know where the rave is? please tell me where the rave is

i spent most of the last 7 years working in big, corporate tech jobs. I think that those are pretty broken places and I hope to never go back. if the computer coop doesnt work out, I daydream about becoming a civil engineer

if you live in asheville or western NC or the rest of NC or southern Appalachia and you care about building a better world of computing, I literally want to talk to you so bad, please reach out

thanks for reading, fedi4life, plur, etc, ❤️

One thing I think could really help is a tech co-op incubator - a Co-Up, so to speak - that helps people wanting to start new co-ops with finding seed funding, as well as things like advice on legal structures, book-keeping and financial reporting, and so on. As well as just creating a pool of like-minded people who've already done it and made it work. Who new co-op founders can reach out to for, support and mentoring when things get tough.
