> FOSS has a very unfortunate weak spot in its foundation, that being the idea that “free” implies “without ownership” rather than “equitably shareable”
💯! Just dropped a #meme depicting how #SX considers #FOSS: https://social.coop/@smallcircles/116433599463361421
#Equity is the word. I wrote a blog on #SharedOwnership earlier: https://coding.social/blog/shared-ownership
Note, that "libertarianism" is emergent, comes with scale. I avoid the term for its political heat it often introduces, and how that stifles #solution-orientation.
> I make product actually meet the users’ needs, cuz damn, you didn’t!
It's funny how actual #Needs are often totally unknown, esp. in FOSS. The #technology then quickly exists mostly for the sake of itself. Damn the externalities.
Social coding commons defines FOSS as the pure software artifact. Code + an open license. Period. All the rest is #SocialCoding where all #expectations we have are either implied and unjustified, or warranted with mutual understanding. The latter is hardly done.

I've mentioned several times before that I have a 1/10th share in a narrowboat. It's a fantastic way of winding down and having a cheap holiday.
One of the other syndicate members is selling his share for only £300 (he lives in America and a change of job means he'll not be able to use the boat in the next few years), with weeks already booked in September/October.

#inflation is overwhelming every area of our #lives. Even small #groceries increase10p each time you #shop. #Insurance, #Electricity, #gas, #fuel, & #rent all eyewatering. Try to #budget & the #landlords, #shareholders & #elite manage without fail to pour #misery on us to enforce #poverty. #SharedOwnership became a way to get a #home for you & your #family. Predictable #mortgages & #rents for a while enabling budgeting. Then WHAM #servicecharges increase 41%

@mxtthxw My flat is #SharedOwnership and I'm trapped by the #CladdingScandal. I have to deal with rental shit and owner shit at the same time. There's so much corruption and greed in #housing, generally.

Thoughts on Nov 7th #SharedOwnership Conference at CU Boulder. Rose/Bud/Thorn:
Roses:
@ntnsndr playing key role, bringing people together
Interesting range of projects & coop forms.
Brought three great organizers up from COS -> more convo about coops. (@natstein )
IRL time with @claytonThorns:
"shared ownership" frames coops as models of property not as movement orgs aiming at solidarity.Buds:
excited about potential for coop dev in CO, and reminded of need for solidarity econ framework -
Yes, November 7th at CU in Boulder.
#SharedOwnership is a better framework than #ConsciousCapitalism (!)
