What a great idea! Start a drivers co-op to replace Uber and Lyft. I bet it's going to do amazingly well. Thanks for posting, Hamilton.

Love this movement! I’d love to learn more about the differences in your experiences between unionizing against capitalists vs. creating a worker-owned coop from the start.

Lyft sent an email out on the 11th stating that the new Minneapolis exit date (cough cough) is July 1, just FYI. (Happy to forward it, if interested.)

Thank you for this. Def grabbing the app before I got to NYC this summer.
