   I would like to use alternative tools as much as possible -- operating system, software, ISP, cloud, SNS, email, hosting... But in reality many of us continue to use the dominant tools and platforms. No need to be dogmatic or puritanical, but how can we encourage and support the development of the new ecosystems we want? Do we need to form cooperative users/makers groups of some kind? #intercooperation #coopecosystem

      @Matt_Noyes We need to focus not just viable alternatives, but also on minimizing switching costs. And platform co-ops are uniquely positioned to do that.
