Last week I was talking about how awesome it would be if some of the people who have been laid off recently from 'Big Tech' jobs decided to form #coops.
There seemed to be a need for more info around this, so I had a meeting with CoTech colleagues @BillySmith @chrislowis & @Graham_Mitchell to figure out something practical.
Pleased to show MVP site as a result of this at https://start.coops.tech
There are five of us - including @KingMob - volunteering initially. Please share widely!
The Computer History Museum has released the source code for the Apple Lisa, today, on the Lisa's 40th anniversary. The whole thing.
“The #fediverse is like #email.”
Yes.
Now read this and understand it:
“I have been self-hosting my email since I got my first broadband connection at home in 1999 … But my emails are just not delivered anymore. I might as well not have an email server.
Email is now an oligopoly, a service gatekept by a few big companies which does not follow the principles of net neutrality … I lost. We lost. One cannot reliably deploy independent email servers.“
