Looks like it’s really happening!
Ghost is for writing blogs and Buttondown for sending newsletters, isn’t it ?
Ghost was originally just for blogging, but they recently decided to take on Substack directly so now they do both. I think Buttondown originally came out of Mailchip being shitty and then they were also taking on Substack so I think this move is that if they team up together and also with the fediverse they have a shot at directly competing with Substack (in the VC minded way I assume)
Ooh, thanks for the explanation. As someone that understands and has some insight, does this excite you?
