The way I worded this announcement might be a bit confusing. If I’m declaring it a success, why am I closing up shop? I explain this at some length in the blog post.

A Bridge Too Far

Every startup story has a beginning, and an end TL;DR the Bridge Seat Cooperative experiment is over, at least in its current form. I (Strypey) am done with SubStack, due to its escalating lock-in, promotion of actual Neo-nazis, and overall enshittification. If you want to keep receiving posts about

My name is Matilda, I am a member of Greenheart Co-op. Interested in #interactiondesign, #systemsdesign and #servicedesign. Specifically in the spirit of e.g #VictorPapanek, #DonellaMeadows. Also in interested in #economics in the spirit of #KateRaworth (#DoghnutEconomics ). Furthermore interested in #tech #frontend #GrowOwnFood #mushroomfarming #TechCooperatives #neuroscience #cognitivescience

In his _Letter from a Birmingham Jail_, #MartinLutherKing emphasizes the importance of #EconomicJustice alongside #SocialJustice and criticizes how white supremacy is happy to take wealth from the hands of Black folks as customers while refusing to provide them with good jobs.

I just ran the numbers for one of my tech #WorkerCooperatives with open-comp + opt-in for self-identifying along several axes.

Non-white team members comprise 53% of our staff and receive ~56% of our total compensation.
