Anyone from #Maharashtra want to be an official member of the prav cooperative ?

We had reached required 50 numbers once, but some people dropped out later.
So we only have 46 members now and need 50 to register as multi state cooperative.
Other states are welcome too, but you will have to wait longer till your state reaches 50.
#Kerala has the required minimum of 50 already, but more members makes us stronger.
1. It might be a good idea to explain in brief what you are asking from the members (starting with what is prav and why the membership)
e.g. Home page says `Prav is a messaging service which can be used to exchange messages, audio/video calls, files, images and videos over the Internet.`
so I'm thinking something like Signal
But why multi-state cooperative with Rs. 1000 membership ?
It is all confusing.
@mandarvaze we tried explaining things at multiple places, but might have missed some things. But happy to answer any questions. You can help fix the website too.
https://prav.app/blog/why-register-a-coop/ this explains why we are registering a cooperative, may be we should link to this page from becoming a member page. If you still have more questions, please ask. You don't need to be a member to use the app, like anyone can buy Amul milk even though it is a cooperative.
@mandarvaze if you just want to use the app (like drinking #Amul milk), you don't need to be a member.
But if you become a member, you share the ownership of the app and can vote to elect people who will govern the app - like deciding its #privacyPolicy or hiring developers to build features in the app.
You can also get elected to the leadership. The app will be run #democratically by its members.
This may look strange to you, but made possible by #FreeSoftware.
