Puzzled . . @mako makes a clear pitch on "Free software production needs free tools" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U_nK6nP_RCY&feature=youtu.be
And is very clear on #commons and #P2P (though says most code comes from solo not collaboration!). Yet not a hint of coop ownership of #platforms to keep tools honest & open (GitHub!). Surely tools today become platforms? And platforms require collaboration even if code doesn't? So why doesn't #coop follow automatically, as we talk tools? How does libre not equal coop in FLOSS world?

To the barricades!
OK, one tag: more #users . .
Who exactly are the users to be served by social.coop? Many producers, focused on producer-side stuff? Chloe Waratini wrote, Culture is what platforms & coops produce: culture for product/service users, & culture of producers for serving users. Perhaps users = producers? Maybe not
