#Facebook va tancar el compte del mitjà de comunicació @thegazettecoop just abans de les eleccions locals.
El compte ja està obert, però evidencia que no se pot fer dependre i confiar la informació i la llibertat de premsa a unes plataformes comercials que te poden silenciar en qualsevol moment, si no ets de la seva corda.
Hem de construir mitjans cooperatius i independents de les #BigTech.

Last night our Co-op launched its capital raise to buy The Hub Castlemaine for the community! Pretty chuffed with the turnout we got.
Now to see if we can raise the money... Our goal is to buy it for the community and take it out of the speculative property market for good. Members can buy debentures that are like a loan, paying interest each year and then paid back in full at the end.
The non-profit Co-op will own the building, so there's no "shareholders" to cash out in the future for a big profit and quick pay day.

Recently came across the Anti-Capitalist Software License: https://anticapitalist.software/
Oriented toward a post-capitalist future, the Anti-Capitalist Software License (ACSL) enables the sharing of software that supports individuals, #collectives worker-owned #cooperatives and #nonprofits. Use by entities that profit from exploitative #labour practices is explicitly restricted, however. The ACSL makes a clear distinction between #commerce and capitalism: commercial use of #software is permitted, so long as the organization concerned is not structured along capitalist lines. In this way the ACSL aims to give such non-capitalist actors a strategic ‘advantage so that they may survive under capitalism - and outlive it’.

DID YOU KNOW that it takes 5000+ Spotify streams for an indie artist to afford a cup of coffee? 
That’s a lot of caffeine debt.

Every day, talented musicians quit music because the industry doesn’t pay them fairly.
The longer we wait, the more amazing, influential voices we lose. The Pack is our chance to change this.

In 2025, the UN is spotlighting cooperative enterprise under the global theme “Cooperatives Build a Better World.” At a time when creative industries are grappling with burnout, extractive business models, and human disinvestment, cooperatives offer a radically different path forward—one grounded in shared ownership, equity, and creative vitality.

I'm reading a poster about a coffee-growing cooperative in Columbia called ANEI, run by and for indigenous peoples of the growing areas. They grow their crops inside a UNESCO-recognised reserve, using traditional and contemporary organic methods. Their work is helping to fund universal education for their child.
És fonamental comptar amb mitjans en mans del cooperativisme i l'economia social, per fer front als discursos dels poderosos i als vaivens dels mitjans públics, que depenen de qui governa en aquell moment.
@jornalpuntcat n'és un exemple, propietat de la cooperativa @LasembraC.
