#SocialCoop #Anniversary

Happy birthday to #SocialCoop, and thanks to everyone keeping my local feed full of #birthday wishes today. So lucky to share an instance with you all.

Interesting article on the tech choices behind CommonsCloud.

(CommonsCloud is a platform coop combining Discourse, NextCloud and Phabricator. They're trying to build an online collaboration platform for the solidarity economy.)

Goal: turn the Barbican in London into a permanent autonomous zone.

Goal completed so far: 0.01% (had idea)

Have you heard of repair cafes, local meeting places where people come together to fix stuff that would otherwise end up as #waste? According to https://repaircafe.org/ there are more than 1,500 repair cafes world-wide -- a growing, noncommercial global movement.

This article in The Guardian from last month gives a good introduction: "Can we fix it? The repair cafes waging war on throwaway culture"

Good morning everyone! Today's a very special day for social.coop: it is our first anniversary! Let's celebrate it all together during the Anniversary Toot-up later today(11am-12pm EDT)! 🎂

More remote-friendly #jobhunt tools:

https://whoishiring.me/ - an improvement to searching the monthly "Who is Hiring?" thread on HN. Yeah, it's HN, but a lot of listings from tiny companies end up there instead of elsewhere.

https://www.remotelyawesomejobs.com/ - Yet another job aggregator specializing in aggregating remote jobs. Has a large number of postings with some basic filtering.

We at #socialcoop should put together a #howto on running a #Mastodon #instance as a #coop

Anyone know of any alternatives to meetup.com? Searching on the web I found openmeetup.net but it looks like they're dead.

Today I took the first step towards realising my dream: a cooperatively run literary café. Wish me luck :)

Want a really nice #CryptoUBI / #UBI and are near or able to travel to France?

Currently it is 10 G1/day and this is more or less what you could buy near France: https://www.gchange.fr/#/app/market/lg

Any #duniter / #g1 UBI recipient willing to share their experience so far?

Looks like it is close to a 5-10 EUR/day UBI :3

Mastodon is wonderful and the concept of #federated #socialmedia is great, but realistically the average person isn’t going to adopt the current form, it’s just too technical to set up, and they are used to polished #frontend experiences.

I have ideas for solving those problems, but I need passionate folks to #help.

Anyone out there crazy enough to work with me on this? Anyone already working on it who’d be willing to hear my ideas?
