Is social.coop an (emergent) multi-stakeholder co-op? Who are our stakeholders?

Hello everyone, good morning, how did all of your / rallies go yesterday?

An idea: a solidarity economy footprint chart (commons chart, p2p chart, platform coop chart...) showing where in your life you do and don't use cooperatives, commons, sharing, etc. and where you don't. (Food, Energy, Banking, Music, Education, Clothing, Sex?, Sports, Buying, Work, Travel, Housing...) ideally with an easy-to-use form & cool graphics with links to solidarity economy resources.

Level Two: your intercooperation footprint...

Inspired by @tbeckett post

Although, it should be said, the expression is unfair to sexworkers.

Together with the Governance Working Group, I've just posted a proposal to clarify the language in the Bylaws: loomio.org/p/1PSop0v2/bylaws-r Please participate. The proposal is open for 10 days.

What a day: blueberry pancakes with my dad for breakfast, morning helping make tiles for a dragon sculpture with the arts group Concrete Couch, afternoon getting the house ready and signed up for the CSA, evening at a small folk concert at the Mesa House (who knew @appleseed played banjo??), then picked up my son at the airport.
I'm in the right place, it seems.

First in-person meet up off of a contact made on social.coop :) Wahoo!

So fun to commiserate about coops and get re-inspired of what can be!

Thanks @michaelafisher

Hope our paths cross again at some point!

Just signed up for my local . Looking forward to the first delivery next Friday.

Just learned that local Southern farmers have a that individuals or groups can join. Not very well advertised…

@Matt_Noyes @michaelafisher It'd be cool to do a recorded interview with her at the conclusion of her journey!

One of the many uses of social.coop:

I met @michaelafisher here and helped connect her to cooperativists and other organizers in Japan and Korea.

Can't wait to hear about what she has learned in her global learning journey! Maybe we could organize a live chat??




Spent the morning harvesting organic garlic on Hobbs Family Farm, for distribution through Arkansas Valley Organic Growers coop. Respect to farmers and farm laborers.

Hey, ! I'm Michał from Poland. My main account is at @phoe . I came to social.coop as a result of an education discussion that stemmed from the post at mastodon.social/@rysiek/100270

The project that I currently develop in my free time is a free software service for textual and cooperative storywriting. It still needs proper bootstrapping (most likely by me) and a working MvP to demonstrate the base idea.

And I'm curious how a co-op works. It's my first one.

Why does Enspiral -- which looks great btw -- promote FB, Twitter, YouTube, etc? We need to cross-promote, to encourage inter-cooperation...
