Agaric Tech Collective<a href="https://social.coop/@mayel" class="u-url mention">@mayel</a> good question - yes we are both. The logic there is fourfold:* be part of a larger formation that could coordinate benefits and services we as a smaller coop can't do alone * more effectively participate in the growing <a href="https://social.coop/tags/techunion" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#techunion</a> movement needed to insist on ethical tech * better lend solidarity to workers in other industries * ensure our own coop stays democratic with a formal mechanism of worker control (we've seen other coops grow to become reformist/exploitative of workers)
