Good, though more of a WordPress alternative. I’d like to see actual substack alternative in the fediverse, with the ability for users to pay authors for their work, via subscription, as substack does.

I know people are worried about monetization in the fediverse but authors need payment for their work. Subscriptions don’t have the same perverse incentives as advertising.

Flipboard ceo has mentioned he is supportive of the idea.

So you can’t self host ghost and use the activity plugin?

Is Ghost pro open source?

I believe the “free our feeds” people are working to change this though.
