Comment on Microsoft laying off about 6,000 people, or 3% of its workforce
yarr@feddit.nl 2 days agoI mean, what would that even look like? New “software communes” getting founded? I don’t necessarily disagree with you, but I’m curious what that would actually look like on the ground.

At the very least form unions. That will help with stuff like wage theft, some people getting underpaid, BS firings, etc.
More aggressively, maybe some sort of collective ownership. Not this “options” bullshit where they never even vest for most people. The whole thing where management pays you $100 and sells what you made for $3000 needs to go. That $3000 needs to be more fairly shared among the people that made it happen.
But I don’t really know. I’m just some guy with entry level knowledge and a sense that the current system is wrong.
