Which part of the globe are you folks based on? Any advise for someone seeking opportunities in another country (that may require visa sponsorship)?
We are throughout USA and Europe. I can give you personal advice as someone who emigrated, and you might want to ask the question in the community chats of different chapters, but TWC is for collective action, not for individual career support
Where can I read about the requirements? Did whole, I’m prepared to pay dues to belong in a guild or union, depending on cost, and also I’m currently unemployed. Am I welcome, even? Lol.
we don’t take dues and we are not an union in a legal sense. Requirements: time, energy, and motivation to learn and contribute. You’re going to get trained on things once you join.

You can Google tech worker coalition and check out their website. This post deep links to a zoom meeting url which isn’t the most helpful for folks in your situation, but yes the TWC does have other resources online.
unfortunately, it’s on zoom
Don’t let perfection be the enemy of good enough.
What platform would you suggest they use going forward?
Matrix has made good progress too. Honestly both are pretty good platforms.
from my part even a text platform would be better, like a discourse forum, or god forbid, maybe even discord.
We have plenty of text-based community platforms, depending on the country you’re in. It’s all stuff that will be presented at the call.
An open source one like Revolt?
Not really a drop-in replacement for video meetings. For that, Jitsi would be more sensible.
