@jonah@mastodon.neat.computer i missed that ghost supports ActivityPub these days. Out of interest, did you ever compare Ghost with WriteAs?

@ju@chaos.social yeah. I like it quite a lot more. Nothing big against write.as but I think Ghost’s newsletter features are better, the built-in ActivityPub *reader* for following other blogs is superb (I also just tested following a Write.as blog in Ghost yesterday and that works perfectly FWIW), and I think Ghost’s monetization features are really important for people who write regularly and don’t want to give their money to Substack or Patreon. Also I’m a self-hosting nerd and I think Ghost is a lot better here. I’ve used WriteFreely but it feels like a product really designed for the write.as instance than general self-hosters.
