I did like the book but I also thought they solved huge problems in a single short chapter with minimal detail.
In one chapter it’s mentioned that one of the characters is working on some open source social media. A few chapters later it becomes the dominant social media in the world… oh and also payment method… Oh and blockchain…
Being a big fan of Lemmy, I think the book is a bit optimistic.
To be fair, he focuses on some struggles more than others. In Ministry it’s more about a few activists and one relevant bureaucrat organizing from top down and bottom up, and not really about labourers other than vignettes for context. Character development over plot for KSR, usually.
