Awesome, I’m not sure what substacks is but ghost is pretty cool and I like to federate
Substack is just another platform where the nazis run wild thanks to capitalism or misguided ideas of what free speech is supposed to mean.
Am I misunderstanding, or is ActivityPub just reinventing RSS?
Activity Pub is much more flexible, the tradeoff being that it’s more complex. ActivityPub is basically a flexible CRUD API specifically designed for social networking, with support for federation.
You could fulfill the purpose of RSS with ActivityPub. But, it doesn’t supercede RSS/atom, because the simplicity is valuable for the cases those protocols handle.
Had the same thought a few days ago when I discovered Podcast worked with RSS and that you could get Podcast and News technically in one place
I have been working on a personal Ghost blog and this is amazing news for me!! Ghost is a joy to use. I am curious about the performance requirements, how it will work with self hosted, I have mine on a cheap VPS.
