Work Reform

A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.
Our Philosophies:
- All workers must be paid a living wage for their labor.
- Income inequality is the main cause of lower living standards.
- Workers must join together and fight back for what is rightfully theirs.
- We must not be divided and conquered. Workers gain the most when they focus on unifying issues.
Our Goals
- Higher wages for underpaid workers.
- Better worker representation, including but not limited to unions.
- Better and fewer working hours.
- Stimulating a massive wave of worker organizing in the United States and beyond.
- Organizing and supporting political causes and campaigns that put workers first.

There's now a decentralized encyclopedia.
https://ibis.wiki/
This is great, thanks!
This sounds stupid, no offense. Because Lemmy has people post the same articles across multiple communities, so on ibish, are there going too be dozens of duplicate articles and then huge gaps for other topics??
I think ibis would be beneficial if there "central" database would act more like a RAID of storage where petiole could commit storage space to a redundant database. Make it like a raid 0 but of you had 100 contributors, it would gain additional redundancy for stability and accessibility. It's be like 25 "copies" or pools in raid 1 with another 25 in raid 0 to make 50 each or 100 total if that makes sense.
That would create a highly available database as if there are servers worldide or nationwide.
You are implicitly raising the question of consensus though. If i host an article on my instance and you host the same on yours, who gets to say which one is correct?
Exactly. Could someone get bad information? Yes. If mine is wrong and I don't know yours is right, if the database was shared/redundant, you'd make corrections to your which would update mine too.
What about cases where right and wrong are up to debate 😉
Also AnarWiki and ProleWiki (tho the latter is ML).
