We have full 2-way interaction now happening between @index and Mastodon / Threads / pretty much anything else that has ActivityPub. This is so cool.

I'm very excited to be successfully following our Ghost newsletter about building ActivityPub support, on Mastodon! @index

@johnonolan Can it send posts already? I've been following this actor for a couple of weeks but haven't received any updates.

I'm a lot more excited about ActivityPub than I am about AI atm. Both are cool, but very different energy.

What's most interesting to me about ActivityPub (at least right now) is less the specific technology, and more the people who it's bringing together.

ActivityPub, the idea, is a little campfire attracting a fascinating band of misfits to gather around it.

@johnonolan ActivityPub is a protocol that better facilitates a connection between people, generative AI is a technology that better facilitates removing other humans from the interaction.

Excited to share that Ghost is going to federate over ActivityPub and become part of the largest open publishing network in the world 🎉

@johnonolan Great news!

>There are multiple ways of supporting gated access to content in ActivityPub, and we're going to do our best to create a seamless experience both for publishers and for readers.

I've built an ActivityPub powered content subscription service called Mitra. Right now it uses direct messages to distribute subscriber-only posts. This method is compatible with most Fediverse micro-blogging services, but doesn't scale, so I'm doing research on federated private groups. I also wrote (and implemented) a specification for federated payments: https://codeberg.org/fediverse/fep/src/branch/main/fep/0837/fep-0837.md

Looking forward to working together on standards for subscription services

@johnonolan props to the informative webpage design! at first I thought it was just going to be a 'get early access' form.
