Welcome to Tech Workers Coalition 101 call! In this call you will learn more about the history of TWC, as well as meaningful ways you can plug in. If you have ideas of your own, we would love to hear them and make them happen!
I know, idealists think that even if we cant change the world immediately, we must at least keep our movement completely pure. They end up painting the coalition as compromised sellouts and do their all to kill all progress from within. By all means, let’s have a huge argument about what tiny, open source video service to use so that we can even talk to each other. Fuck!
we have our own self-hosted infrastructure for critical data. We use Zoom just to passively filter FOSS purists and hackerinos. (jk, not true, we do it because the infrastructure group prioritized other things, but it works anyway)

Good! If I find out you were hand rolling a video service so you could hold a meeting, I’d roll my eyes and move on :D
