The abolition of work https://theanarchistlibrary.org/library/bob-black-the-abolition-of-work #mayfirst

When it’s May day & the workers have pancakes 🥞 for brunch, you know it’s a good day 🙌🏻

#May2023 #mayfirst #brunch #pancakes #food #yum #homecooking #fun

Happy #MayFirst everyone! Enjoy it, make it count!

@jamiem
Am I right, #mayfirst doesn't administer forum setups for members (ie discourse instances). Members can self-host, of course, on server space that comes with their membership level?

Mastodon Isn’t Just A Replacement For Twitter by Nathan Schneider and Amy Hasinoff

Twitterのビジネスモデルからの解放を求めて移住する人達がいる一方で、受け入れ側が#fediverse をどのような思いで意識的に構築するか、という問題がある。このエッセイでは、@Social.coop の事例を詳しく紹介している。将来を楽観していないが悲観もしておらず、むしろ中央集権的な私企業(あるいは政府)におんぶにだっこ状態から、ごくあたりまえに自分のコミュニケーション環境への意思決定の力をとりもどす可能性のある空間の登場を評価している。私の周囲の世代は、そもそもSNSそのもの懐疑的な人も多い。fediverseがまた奴等に食い荒らされる前になんとかしたいんだが... #noema #socialcoop #mayfirst

@alicea
Hi alicea great to see you here @ social.coop. great also to see the threads of #mayfirst and #Agaric running in your follows. Me too!

You might like to check out/contribute in this collaborative project, just about to start

In thinking about the issues @nathan has faced as the sole admin of #lol, I'm wondering if some kind of community co-op governance structure would be good for the server?

Hiring additional moderators will help with physical & emotional workload but #coop structures like those used by #MayFirst could help distribute the pressure of governance, rule-making, and generally being the face of the server.

Hi Andi, good to see you here, welcome 😎 In addition to #meetcoop @Wtebbens @pettter @Graham_Mitchell @oli
there are friends here too from #MayFirst @FreeScholar @jamiem @agaric and of course #socialcoop @Matt_Noyes @emi

I reported my conclusions from the Lurk Mastodon workshop to the #MayFirst coordination team today. My overall conclusion is that the differences between individual and organization memberships in the cooperative make SNS unlikely to get much traction, absent a focused effort to get the member orgs to adopt the initiative, since #MayFirst doesn't have direct access to the people in its member orgs to recruit/evangelize. ( it is not recursive.) It did start a conversation that gets the idea some attention in our leadership.

I will probably set up an unofficial instance to make it easy to try it out safely. #MayFirst is a member of #RisingMajority (https://therisingmajority.com/organizations/) , which is a coalition of activist organizations itself, so this emergent structure of hierarchies of networked organizations of organizations is a thing we all might need to figure out in the present global political climate.

My anarchist preferences for prefiguration, non-domination and direct sociality don't necessarily preclude hierarchy, if it doesn't create injustice or oppression, so maybe the Fediverse can be tweaked to accomodate it. How do contemporary radical feminists address this possibility of hierarchy among voluntary equals?

#introduction | I'm on the Board of #MayFirst Movement Technology, a coop that provides tools and supports for both individual members (like me) and organizations that are members (e.g. Progressive Technology Project). We've been a bit challenged about how to deal with supporting folx shifting from depending on corporate tools like fbook to using libre tools instead. My own daughter is a member of Socialist Alternative and she tells me they have to use fbook because that's where the people are, and the floss tools are harder to use and not as feature rich. Now I on the other hand have stayed away from social media entirely, so I have no idea how to respond. So I decided to start here on lurk.

All over the world, working class solidarity is alive and growing. With the 1st of May 2022, we proved it in the streets:

WE ARE THE STORM IN THE EYE OF THE CYCLONE.

#mayfirst membership meeting was most truly bilingual meeting I have been in in a long time, the technology enabled what the political culture is designed to do.

Dang, #mayfirst is so well organized...

#mayfirst co-op meeting about to begin -- #jitsi interface is looking good on the user end as is the interpretation feature...
