Hey folks, it seems we may be able to offer our hardware in the U.S. now. Possibly also Canada too.

If you would like a fully configured #grapheneos phone or #linux laptop shipped directly to you with compassionate paid support going forward, get in touch via Signal or email

We currently favour second hand Pixel 8a and the Thinkpad T480s as our target hardware of choice for a nice balance of affordability and features.

TRADUCOOP Mar 4

Emprender no tiene que ser un camino solitario. En las cooperativas, el esfuerzo individual se transforma en éxito compartido. En nuestra comunidad de traductores, cooperativismo significa:

🤝 Transparencia: comunicación clara y sin burocracia
👍 Sinergia: apoyo y colaboración en proyectos de gran volumen o complejidad
🙌 Respaldo: estabilidad y crecimiento con riesgos distribuidos
👏 Dignidad: tarifas justas y remuneraciones a tiempo, independientemente del ciclo de pago del cliente
🤙 Libertad: flexibilidad y confianza fundamentadas en la responsabilidad mutua

📲 Sigue a @traducoop para ver más sobre traducción, interpretación y cooperativismo.

@susankayequinn I think (and sometimes write) about this a lot. I'm the founder of a #workercoop, and I actively promote the idea to others. The difficulty is that worker co-ops tend to be small, and the most problematic corporations, almost by definition, are large. Replacing them with a network of small and medium-sized worker co-ops is easier said than done. Teaming up with #unions is a big step in the right direction, but there are still some large hurdles to clear.

▶️ Workers cooperatives explained

In a worker cooperative, members share interest in the work wich is provided by or ensured through the cooperative.

The members are individual workers (worker-members) whose jobs are directly assured through the cooperative.

A worker cooperative aims to offer its members decent working conditions and income.

Hi everyone

We're a new tech co-op that aims to support people working for social good with compassionate and caring tech support. No more feeling alone, no more getting stuck. That thing that is a total showstopper for you, may be an easy fix for us. We’ll be there for you.

We're currently mostly one person @kawaiipunk who is a founder member of @autonomic (and friends) but we're looking to expand.
