Overall I like that slogan. There is one point I haven't seen come up in discussion (apologies if I missed it) but should be highlighted. I don't have a strong personal opinion on how important this point is, but because of whose point it is and the projects Snowdrift.coop aims to support, it should at least be mentioned: https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/words-to-avoid.html#DigitalGoods Now the slogan doesn't say "digital goods", but it does use "goods" in a way that to me felt slightly confusing initially (and would probably be more confusing to most people, since they spend less time thinking about software than the majority of us). I don't know if there are good alternatives, though. "Public works" isn't an option since it has its own meaning ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public_works ) and "public works of authorship" feels a bit long to me. Anyway, I just wanted to highlight this. To me, the current slogan shouldn't be rejected solely on the basis of this, but it at least warrants a review by people more connected to the project than I.
