For at least a few weeks now powered newsletters in (at least on Android) are all really narrow. Temporary workaround is to switch to landscape orientation. This is a relatively new situation, they were fine a month or two back, don't know if it was a Feedly or Ghost change that broke things.

Screenshot of the Feedly app on Android of a ghost newsletter. The newsletter content is strangely narrow, taking up only ~25% of the screen width

Open source Ghost cms now has an official account on Bluesky.

They even validated their account with official domain handle

If you have a domain, you can do the same and use it for all atproto based apps

What I don’t like about the implementation of is that I see the whole damn post, long-form and unformatted, in my feed. Let’s hope does it better.

@index Great news indeed! After you successfully implemented inside , will you consider creating official iPhone, iPad & Android apps for the platform‽

The rare sighting of a cyclist being attacked by a ghost in broad daylight.

A person cycling along an inner city cycle path in front of a hedge and trees. Some plastic sheet is whirling around the head of the cyclist, probably a rain cover gone wrong in the wind, but looking like attacking ectoplasm just as well.

@craignicol Know what you mean - and I moved from to for just this reason.

Hate to see the crazy turmoil happening at Automattic, hope they reorient, but if not, there are plenty of CMS's and @ghost is building out its ActivtyPub features in a very promising way.

@index if this integration of Ghost with Activity Pub works well, I'll possibly choose as the open source tool to start blogging again.

It was one of the tools I took a look at on my search

What a week!

I discovered the FediForum unconference on Mastodon and spent the next three days learning about ActivityPub, web fingers and hooks, and the history and politics of federated social media from some of the originators. I’ll have to level up my technical skills, again. I spent a few hours finding, learning about, and following folks across Mastodon instances and then closing scores of tabs.

Interesting implementation roadmap by the team: instead of implementing the standard, and then optimizing interop of their implementation with other implementors like Mastodon, they start with making it work with other implementations and then come back to the standard.

The people are doing excellent marketing with their weekly newsletters, such as today’s. I don’t agree with some of the details of their points of view, but that doesn’t matter in the grand scheme of things, they are doing a great service educating potential users beyond the niche of today’s typical Mastodon users. Recommended.

Newsletter platform and Substack rival @ghost announced earlier this year that it would join the fediverse, and now it has made good on that promise by federating its first newsletter.

Writes @Sarahp
for @TechCrunch “By offering a federated version of the newsletter, readers will have more choices on how they want to subscribe. That is, instead of only being able to follow the newsletter via email or the web, they also can track it using RSS or ActivityPub-powered apps, like Mastodon and others.”

Ghost is beginning to publish federated content! @index

Part of a newsletter from Ghost. The text reads:

“This newsletter is now federated

Our second bit of AP-Team news this week is that this very newsletter, the one you're reading right now, has become the first federated Ghost instance on the internet. In fact, you can follow it right now on @index@activitpub.ghost.org

Does it work perfectly? It does not. Are there likely to be all manner of bugs and issues with it? Oh yes there are. But here, dear reader, are the first signs of life.”

ICYMI: Last week saw a new episode of Dot Social, the fediverse podcast hosted by Flipboard CEO
@mike, in which he interviewed @ghost's @johnonolan. Here's a taste of their conversation; you can listen to the whole episode here or wherever you get your podcasts:

“We’re at a very grassroots stage of a mix of hackers and enthusiasts collaborating to make the thing they want, not the thing that has the most funding, and I love that. That speaks to my heart.”

Essential listening/viewing from @mike and @johnonolan . “No-one owns this space - it’s being built by a bunch of hackers and enthusiasts who are building what they want… is going to be bigger than any other social network…It’s moat-less technology. Let’s fill in all the canals and grass them over.” Fantastic!

I'm very excited that the team has chosen to implement . I've been working closely with the Ghost team, and it's been a lot of fun, and I can't wait to see the ActivityPub implementation at Ghost.
