     This project is still [alpha quality software](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_release_life_cycle#Alpha). Please take that into consideration if you are thinking about using this system in production. We're working hard to make Co-op Cloud stable. In the meantime, this is a good time to help us out with initial testing, feedback, ideas or [join in with development](/contribute/).

+## What are the goals of the Co-op Cloud?
+
+!!! note "Yes, we do have a blog"
+
+    Some leading thoughts are outlined in the [project launch blog post](https://autonomic.zone/blog/co-op-cloud/) also.
+
+From our experiences working and organising as Autonomic, the technology co-op who initiated the Co-op Cloud project, we know that the progressive technology movement lack reliable and cost-effective technical means for providing an alternative to “Big Tech” cloud services.
+
+The urgency for providing an alternative comes out of the understanding that the concentration of our digital lives within the private sphere of corporate providers (e.g. Google, Amazon and Microsoft) represents a loss of freedom due to the threat to our privacy and self-determination through surveillance and monopolisation.
+
+As a movement, we cannot compete with corporate providers in terms of cost and scale. Their network effects and available capital means that no one project, product or organisation can create the required shift to a more widespread public interest technology.
+
+Our strategy is to mutualise our resources to create this shift. Co-op Cloud is an attempt to create a new shared resource - an open and democratically managed, open standards based, copyleft licensed, libre software infrastructure project.
