Keep Bandcamp Great: Tell Songtradr to recognize and negotiate with Bandcamp United immediately
Join me in protecting and preserving BandcampUnited amidst their acquisition by Songtradr. Workers are what make Bandcamp great.
On September 28, Epic Games announced the sale of Bandcamp to Songtradr, Inc. In an internal announcement to staff, Epic Games wrote that Songtradr, Inc. would be offering positions to some Bandcamp employees but not all. This comes amidst ongoing contract negotiations with Bandcamp’s staff union - Bandcamp United.

I never knew there was a mastodon server for unions! that's awesome!
Damn, I love Bandcamp.
I don't think it's over yet, hopefully cool heads will prevail with a new owners. But I think it's important to keep pressure up as users.
