Question for something I’m writing: would it be possible for Substack to make substack Notes (its twitter like feature within the Substack app) part of the fediverse?
I’m wondering if this is something that’s technically possible or not and I don’t know enough about how the fediverse operates to know if it would be feasible. #fediverse
@johnonolan@mastodon.xyz @jvnknvlgl@mastodon.social hi!! Omg I have never seen your replies I am sorry, I would have definitely responded!! I would love to chat, and not trying to hate on ghost btw. As I understand Quilette is on Ghost and you guys don’t do content moderation. But I wasn’t trying to hate on anyone and I just think that a lot of these convos about publishing tools are derailed by what ppl read in headlines. I’m on taylor@usermag.co if u ever have a few min to chat I’d love to connect 🙏
@taylorlorenz@mastodon.social @johnonolan@mastodon.xyz I get where you are coming from, however it still makes a difference if Ghost is hosting them, I.e. they are using Ghost Pro, or if they self-host it, which they can as it is open source. Also, even using Ghost Pro you are not in a closed network like Substack. Every Ghost publication is more like a single instance, so content moderation is harder. Substack still is a hellhole, especially after that Decoder interview it is clear what kind of hellhole it is.
