Is there a site for recently laid-off tech workers, designers etc. to partner up on startup projects, welcome people, offer shares in them etc?
Because if not - I’d love to make one. Anyone here care go join me? With my platform I can put it together in a couple days.
I am a big fan of opting out of full time work for an employer, and towards building projects together. The movie industry does that a lot. And my company has experimented with these models for years… starting in 2016! (https://qbix.com/blog/2016/11/17/properly-valuing-contributi...)
Tangentially related: A flat tech co-op model could be good. Build tools to make starting tech companies much easier, then let members start companies with those tools for either some regular payment in either labor (eg. allocate headcount for the co-op) or cash.
The co-op owns office space, (maybe) helps fund companies, provides vetted staff to reduce interview overhead, etc..
