13 hours agoI love the initiative. Am organizing something similar for (primarily anti-fascist / left movement) orgs, mainly in Scandinavia.
Seeing this workshop rely on proprietary, centralized, privacy disrespecting, fascism-vulnerable services (bit.ly and zoom); makes me unlikely to engage though.
I recommend you check out these efforts, it’ll make it easier for you to practice what I think you’re trying to preach:

Geared more toward personal use:
I see, thanks for your nuanced reply. I’m glad to hear you’re in a process of transition, and given your situation I can understand using the tools you’re used to for now.
I’ll share your post to mastodon as well as a matrix group chat where workers’ co-ops, cooperative online service providers, and movement orgs are organizing the digital transition workshop mentioned in my previous comment.
