@keithpp :-) I'm as horrified by the VCs privatizing commons as you are. The question is, what can we realistically influence as users?
@keithpp we have no power over VCs or people who sell their start-ups to them. But we do have the power to decide where to read and publish
@keithpp we can support platform co-ops by giving them our eyeballs and content instead of giving them to VC-funded proprietary platforms
@keithpp we're doing that with #Twitter by moving our posting to #GNUSocial / #Mastodon but what are our best options for replacing #Medium?
