I'm also thinking of designing cooperative forms of Upwork (let's call it Freelance Work Marketplace for now) and LinkedIn (let's call it Company/Candidate marketplace for now) so we can strengthen cooperative global communities and promote the use of cooperative services instead of undemocratic alternatives.
Only cooperatives would be allowed on the the Company/Candidate marketplace platform and cooperatives on the plaform will be encouraged to team up to complete projects (to form a collective and pool resources to tackle specific project requirements). All 3 of these services would be part of one site. I came up with this idea because of my struggle in finding work that checks my specific requirements (remote anywhere, freelance, digital cooperative) and the difficulties I am experiencing in finding other cooperationists to network with – and I feel like I have to give up and work at yet another hierarchical organisation. I don't want to do that so I am determined to find a coop to work for and help give everyone an easy alternative than scrolling endlessly through LinkedIn (reading posts of CEOs crying about retrenching his workers instead of dropping his salary because he needs a 3rd yacht). Anyway, yeah even if you just want to chat about these ideas please do.
