Interesting critique of worker coops. Main argument seems to be that they remove people from union organising and class struggle.

https://organizing.work/2021/01/you-cant-win-without-a-fight-why-worker-cooperatives-are-a-bad-strategy/

cooperatives retreat from the direct struggle between workers and owners to instead build worker-owners.

Not sure I get it… thoughts?

I’ve set up a basic automatic photo sync from my phone to NextCloud. Chuffed to get that working. I struggled in the past with syncthing for that some reason I’ve forgotten now, and it made me have to stick with Google Photos.
