We spoke with several cooperative-minded experts who offered their insight into these questions, as part of a collaboration with the Action Network, a nonprofit online mobilization platform whose team is seeking to further democratize its operations. Here are a few takeaways from our discussion:

Part of the appeal in being a worker on new gig-economy platforms like Uber or Taskrabbit is the apparent autonomy, the feeling of not having a boss. Sure, an app on your phone is your new boss, and through it a large, transnational corporation whose investors want nothing more than to automate you away, but maybe that beats someone coming out of the corner office to breathe down your neck. For some people, the app-boss is at least a step in the right direction.

I’m the founder and CEO of Curafied. Curafied is a platform that helps digital content creators earn monthly income by charging a low monthly subscription to fans for their content creation and curation directly—not from “patron” donations or advertising sponsorships. We’re exploring a new direction for our startup, and I would like to tell you about it in case you have any feedback or want to help.

I have been trying for some time to put my finger on the difference---between the stories of co-op origins I read about for years while working on my book, _[Everything for Everyone](https://nathanschneider.info/e4e)_, and what I encounter among many larger cooperatives today. Certain differences are obvious: the scale, the maturity, the technology, the political power, and the global reach of co-ops now are well beyond what the founders could have imagined a century or so ago. But many co-ops have also lost a feature that was their main competitive advantage at their founding.
