Autonomic Co-opNov 22, 2023

Autonomic is delighted to announce our radical anti-competitive partnership with http://collective.tools/ 🤝

We helped migrate collective.tools services from an intricate menagerie of separate VPSs and corporate mail hosting, to an updated, integrated, #CoopCloud deployment – lowering their operating costs and making the stack easier to manage.

If you’re looking for a right-on data/e-mail/forum hoster (and you should be, in these times of intense surveillance capitalism!), and you’d like to be part of an established multistakeholder coöperative, head on over to https://collective.tools/product/collective-tools-personal/

Collective.tools! Ett alternativ för Google Drive, Dropbox och lite annat. Drivs som ett kooperativ. Jag kör tjänsten själv som individ. Funkar bra!

Vad kör ni för alternativ? Köper ni tjänsten, kör gratis någonstans eller hostar?

Both are free software citizen participation, municipalist platforms deployed by DigidemLab, the parent of #collectivetools

Did I toot about #unhangout? MIT Media Project not-Google-hangouts
https://www.media.mit.edu/projects/unhangout/overview/
The Nextcloud stack of #collectivetools is a timely contrast with what @yaelwrites comments on - not-Slack, not-Zoom.

@mattiasaxell
Thanks Mattias. What's the business status of #collectivetools? A coop under Swedish law? Is startup funding involved?

Is Vinnova much involved in CT? I know a little about them, worked with people there on national innovation systems in the 90s. Or is financial support more at the municipal level?

Likewise, status of Digidem Lab?

@LeoSammallahti #collectivetools video meeting doesn't offer recording. Otherwise, in my limited experience it holds up OK in comparison to Zoom, may be a tad less stable, comms-wise, but acceptable.

Does this join up with recent discussion here of platform toolkits for organisers, and wider community development aims of social.coop?

looks interesting as a platform. Disroot is coming from the FLOSS direction, platformed toolkits of apps for federating anarcho individuals? CT is coming from #partnerstate #civictech direction - digital infrastructure for municipal collaborations.
Originating in Gothenburg Sweden, riding on the back of local municipal collaborations. Developed in partnership with Swedish national public policy oriented R&D organisation Vinnova.Very Swedish 😀
