Just yesterday I was listening to a talk organised by the electricity cooperative to which I belong (or which partly belongs to me?) about consumer cooperatives and their organising principles. The context and discussions were not tech-related in any way whatsoever, but I did quietly ponder about tech cooperatives (cloud services, software development, infrastructure, and yes, LLMs) and their desirability. And just as the article, this comment is not a manifesto, nor a plan, not even the concept of a plan. It is just a musing aligned with what the author is saying.
