There are a shit-ton of programmers here and I know y'all are worried for your jobs.

But I feel like so many are still only thinking of themselves in relation to potential employers.

There are two things here there's enough critical mass to do:

- Form a union (the Freelancer's Union exists for folks in freelancing (writing, etc). and shows you can band together for something even if you're not all at the same employer) or a guild... you could make something for people in tech and make it international just like the wealthy know no nation. The best way for labor to fight corporations is to ALSO be multinational. https://freelancersunion.org/ This could take a variety of forms with a variety of intentions, but the point is to organize regardless of whether you're already employed or not.

- Form cooperatives and create non-slop things people need while also providing employment for yourselves that you control. There are definitely people here who don't program who would be willing to buy a program from a cooperative software foundry.
