#BeYourOwnPlatform #RadicalDigitalAutonomy

A quick random reminder that 'YourOwn' in #BeYourOwnPlatform does not necessarily mean a single person, but can just as easily be a collective, a cooperative, or a community.

you don't appear, grow, and work in a vacuum.

total independence is a myth.

so is the idea of a genius.

instead of depending on vulture capitalist platforms, lean in to your nearest community/cooperative of people with similar interests and needs who prefer cooperation and mutual care instead of competition. find the scenius. build your (domain) name. engage in the community. ask for help and support.
